When the teachers strike, it means they will not be teaching but instead picketing at the schools and taking actions around the community. The strike is most impactful and ideally quickest if OUSD families and faculty band together. One of the most effective ways to do this is to not send your child to school during the strike. However, we know that not all families are in a position to keep their children home.

As a community, one way we can help is by organizing small (8-10 kids) “Solidarity Schools” which are parent/guardian organized and run at local churches, rec centers or libraries, or even homes. Solidarity Schools generally include several parents or other responsible adults who rotate the care and supervision of a group of kids during the course of the strike—either directly or by pooling resources to hire caregivers. Those involved can create structured school-like environment, plan field trips, participate in picketing or simply create play dates.

This questionnaire is to help parents/guardians organize Solidarity Schools that best meet the needs of their families. It is up to each group to find a space and volunteers to work the schools each day and make it available to as many students as they can. Because it is not an official school function, it will not be covered under school insurance and families participate at their own discretion.

Kaiser Elementary staff, administration nor PTA is responsible for the set-up, execution and maintenance of Strike Schools

Ideally the strike will be shorter, and the teachers back in the classrooms sooner, if we are able to find alternatives to sending our kids to school.
