Teachers Association of Long Beach - Lakewood Area Elementary

Our TALB members should get the message out to parents and the community that we are doing a great job here in Long Beach, but we need to be better compensated, shown more respect by students, parents, the Board of Education, and administrators should all work together to make sure that ALL children are receiving the best public education.
