Bella Vista Parents Rally in Support of Local Teachers

Parents of the Bella Vista R.C. School gathered in the school compound this morning in a peaceful demonstration to show their solidarity with the institution’s teachers. Standing shoulder to shoulder, many parents held placards and the hands of their children as they voiced their support for the educators. Their messages were clear; the concerns and rights of the teachers resonate far beyond the classroom. Love News spoke with one of the parents who emphasized the need to support the teachers expressing that their rights are not only about them but quote “It’s for all of us” end of quote. 

Parent: “We’re here in solidarity with our teachers. We know the struggles that we’re living countrywide not only them it’s for all of us and we stand in solidarity with them because we support them and the government and the officials may think that we do not support our teachers because we are most of the times working dads or working moms and we cannot be there protesting and trying to make it seems like the teachers are alone in this but here in Bella Vista Village the parents that are making it out here we want all the government officials in power to know that we stand together with the teachers and we support for the raise of their wages, they’re doing a great job and this is something necessary, something that that country can do.”

Parents countrywide via social media have also expressed their support for the teachers.
