LEA president urges collaboration and introduces safety video at convocation
Summary
Carl Luce, president of the Lynchburg Education Association, spoke to staff about change, professional growth and membership, and introduced a bloodborne-pathogens video while mixing humor with encouragement.
Carl Luce, president of the Lynchburg Education Association and a civics teacher at Paul Laurence Dunbar Middle School for Innovation, addressed staff about the inevitability of change in schools and encouraged educators to engage with one another and consider union membership. "This year, I want to talk to you about something that's all around you right now and that's change," Luce said.
Luce used humor and anecdote to connect with staff, noted the value of professional relationships after 35 years in the district, and introduced a brief bloodborne-pathogens video as part of required training. He also urged staff to take care of themselves while serving students. Luce's remarks were framed as encouragement and guidance; no formal labor action or negotiations were announced at the convocation.
