The Saskatchewan Teachers' Federation (STF) is urging voters in Saskatchewan to prioritize public education in the upcoming provincial and municipal elections. With the launch of their new election platform, 'Check All the Boxes: Supporting Students, Teachers and Our Future in the 2024 Elections,' the STF is focusing on the restoration and maintenance of per-student funding, addressing the issues of class size and complexity, and tackling classroom violence. Federation president Samantha Becotte emphasizes the importance of making public education a central issue in the elections, especially after a year of challenging contract negotiations between teachers and the provincial government. The STF's campaign aims to mobilize teachers, business owners, and the general public to vote in support of strengthening Saskatchewan's education system.
The Saskatchewan Teachers' Federation is really stepping up to the plate with their new campaign. It's high time that public education becomes a focal point in our political discourse, especially considering how vital it is for our future. Samantha Becotte is spot on in emphasizing the need to make public education a key issue during the elections. Addressing class sizes, funding, and classroom violence is crucial for not only improving the quality of education but also for ensuring our teachers have the support they need.

It's great to see the Saskatchewan Teachers' Federation taking a stand for public education. Education should be at the forefront of our priorities, ensuring every child has access to quality learning environments, regardless of their background. This campaign could really make a difference in how education is valued and funded in Saskatchewan.
