Dear Esteemed Inglewood Teachers Association Members,
As we prepare to enter bargaining, we must recognize a truth that has echoed throughout our profession and our history: our strength comes from our unity. December 10, 2025 will be a defining moment for us as educators, professionals, and advocates for the respect we deserve. Your participation on this day is not optional—it is essential.
For far too long, we have been met with disregard, dismissed concerns, and a persistent lack of respect for the work we do every single day. While salary increases are always at the forefront of member priorities, meaningful progress on compensation—and on all of our shared goals—can only be won when we move together, with purpose and resolve.
As Frederick Douglass reminded us over 150 years ago, “Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never has and it never will.”
This is our moment to make that demand—not as isolated worksites, but as one union, unified in voice and action.
The sacrifices required in this fight are not borne by a few; they are shared by all of us. And because we rise together, our individual goals will only be achieved through our collective power. When we show up in force, we show that we are not simply employees—we are a united body of professionals who refuse to be ignored.
On December 10th, we must send a message that cannot be minimized, delayed, or dismissed.
This is the time to demonstrate our strength, to stand shoulder to shoulder, and to remind the district exactly who we are and what we are worth.
You are either part of the problem or part of the solution. No risk, no reward.
It’s time to show our power. It’s time to fight for the respect we deserve.
Fight the power!
In solidarity,
John Hughes

A Message from ITA President John Hughes
I would like to welcome everyone to our information centered, member empowered, result oriented, collaborative, professional organization. The Inglewood Teachers Association. I am truly honored to serve as the president of some of the most devoted, dedicated, caring, committed education professionals in existence. I hope to assist all members in the realization of their value and worth, in appreciating the magnitude of their contribution to the community and society by servicing students and families, and providing pathways to a fantastic future. Malcom X said “Education is our passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today.” We are assisting in shaping our futures by helping students to achieve and to be their best. There is no nobler profession. Martin Luther King Jr. said “The function of education, therefore, is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically, intelligence plus character-that is the true goal of education.” We manifest this each day by modeling character for our students and colleagues. We by harnessing our talents, and uniting in a common mission, we can create the vision and achieve what we want while we build the capacity to achieve it. It’s going to require work on all of our part, but if we commit to each other and hold each other up, we will be unstoppable. I hope for the very best year for all of you. We are working for all members and our collective best interest. One aim, one union, one destiny-the best for us all.
In solidarity, John Hughes
