There has been a common theme amongst many members and it is that this year’s school start-up has been the most demanding both physically and mentally. From our clerical division that has experienced decreases in hours while technological demands increase, to all of those members in the Assistants and Transportation divisions who have been deeply impacted with change as a result of the grade reconfiguration. We applaud your ability to keep a positive attitude while in the throes of such chaos and confusion and hope that everyone has been able to weather the storm unscathed.
We would like to extend a HUGE “Thank you” to all the members that were able to join us at our first ever Site Visits. From September 20 – November 30 we managed to visit every site in the District and were even invited back to meet with members that couldn’t connect the first time around. Please be sure to attend our January 2019 General Meeting for a full report.
