Dear Colleagues,
It finally feels like fall as we get into the swing of things as educators.
As an Association this is the time for action as well.
We have events lined up for you to participate in as well as suggestions to ensure success.
Here are the dates for some important events:
October 15th: Flu shot social/member benefits fair
October 17th: FAST ( Families and School Together) event for all of our bilingual families at EMK. Please stop by!
October 22nd: Dyslexia workshop – Pizza provided by EWEA
October 30th: Workshop – ACEs Part 2 – Becoming a Self-Healing Community (link to sign up on MLP)
November 1: County bowling event
November 5th: Election day – VOTE for our endorsed candidates – (email from your LAT rep coming soon)
November 7th/8th: NJEA Convention in Atlantic City. Free rooms for first time attendees!
November 14th: EWEA Social at the Americana Kitchen and Bar from 3:00 – 5:00
December 11th: Workshop -Differentiated Instruction: Strategies for Effective Planning and Implementation
You have received emails about county sponsored workshops too. These are also free (you send in a $15 deposit which you get back at the workshop) and you earn hours towards your district 10 and state 20.
Please take a moment to look at the EWEA Quickie Guide to Observations and Evaluations. Show your observation write up to your Building Rep. ASK QUESTIONS.
I also hope our new members are finding some value in the Newbie Tips I send each week.
And, as always, I am an email or phone call away.
In Unity and Solidarity,
Ellen Ogintz
