âť—Grossmont School Board to Layoff Teachers, Staff 02/27/2025

The Republican-led Grossmont Union High School District Board plans to approve layoffs of 61 employees, including all librarians and other key teaching roles. This is after they cut 53 positions just last year!

Here’s what you can do to fight back!
🗣️ Speak against these layoffs at the meeting. The meeting starts at 4:30 p.m., but arrive early to submit a speaker card. The agenda says they’ll limit public comment to just 30 minutes total.
🪧 Attend the meeting in solidarity with teachers, staff, and fellow supporters. The teachers union is encouraging supporters to wear black shirts.
✍️ Sign up for our email list to get the latest news and info about East County politics.
📨 Share this post friends and family to let them know that the Republicans on the GUHSD Board are not supporting the students.
