Dear Colleagues,
Is it really winter? The ground hog says spring is coming and personally I think it’s here!
EWEA members have been busy doing what they do best…educating our students, advocating for our students, and being members of a wonderful union!
You’ve attended excellent PD sessions right at HHS.
You’ve gone bowling.
You’ve participated in PRIDE and FAST events that brought the school and community together.
Non-tenured folks, you’ve had your mid-year evaluations. PLEASE make sure you understand EXACTLY where you stand and reach out for help if it’s needed.
I also hope our new members are finding some value in the Newbie Tips I send each week.
Next up is EWEA day on March 13th. There will be breakfast in your building.
Please wear your EWEA shirt that day and make a $5 donation to the NEA Fund for Children and Public Education. That’s our voice in Washington and it costs money to speak loudly!
EWEA elections will also happen that day, so big things ahead.
Oh yeah…and spring break 😉
And, as always, I am an email or phone call away.
In Unity and Solidarity,
Ellen Ogintz
