Lake Washington Education Association

Lake Washington Education Association The 2000+ members of LWEA stand united together to protect our rights, advocate for students & colleagues and assist in strengthening public education.

LWEA is an organization of education professionals in the Lake Washington School District. There are about 1,600 of us - classroom teachers, psychologists, resource teachers, counselors, occupational and physical therapists, library media specialists, specialists, and more. We protect the rights of our members, advocate on their behalf, assist them in resolving conflicts, answer their questions, o

ffer suggestions, and listen to their concerns. It is our responsibility to negotiate with the school district on behalf of our members over wages, hours, and working conditions. As a democratic organization, we hold monthly meetings with our elected building representatives to conduct Association business and to ensure communication with our members. In addition, we publish a weekly newsletter, the Update, in which we share news of the Association, member benefits and discounts, professional information about upcoming classes and available educational resources, and articles on current educational issues.
