School Employees

Expanding Opportunities for Schools Workers and Students

SEIU members make education work and keep schools running for millions of students across the country. 

We are the bus drivers, paraprofessionals, food service workers, nutritionists, social workers, clerical staff, and maintenance workers in elementary, middle, and high schools.  And we are the librarians, custodial workers, clerical staff, and grounds and maintenance workers in colleges and universities.

SEIU Local 221 represents workers from the following areas:

• Grossmont Union  High School District
• Poway Unified School District
• Fallbrook Union High School District
• San Diego Community College District

We are not only education workers, we are parents committed to quality education  that working families and our communities can count on and that public education employees can deliver with pride.

SEIU members are helping to make quality education accessible to every working family by working to:

Encourage public officials to use tax dollars to invest in educational opportunities for working families – not to subsidize private schools for the wealthy.

• Expand after-school programs in all of our public schools to help kids succeed in and out of school.
• Cultivate new teachers to address the teacher shortage by using career tracks to tap the pool of experienced paraprofessionals who can develop into teachers.
• Provide state-of-the-art equipment and school buildings where our children can prepare for the 21^st Century.
