Petersburg City Public Schools supports the Petersburg Education Association
Established in 1863, VEA is a Union dedicated to advancing quality instruction and curriculum, adequate funding, and excellent working conditions for Virginia public employees. *
- We advocate for public education, as well as the professional development and fair treatment of educators.
- We help our colleagues develop their skills through shared professional learning and mentoring.
- We advocate at both the state and school division level for competitive salaries as well as increased school funding, so Virginia can retain and attract great teachers and support staff.
- We work to show the public the important social good that public schools, teachers, and education support professionals deliver.
- We defend and protect members from unfair regulations, working conditions, and professional liabilities.
