Words from the Prez for April

Post date: Apr 14, 2011 1:09:32 PM

April is upon us and that means the budget cutting process is in full swing. So many huge decisions are currently being made for our schools. It is important to stay connected and informed. The school board meetings are informative and there is a time for public comment. You have three minutes to share your support or concerns. I encourage you to speak if you have something you would like to share with the school board members about this year’s budget.

BEA is quickly preparing for contract negotiations. Look for a survey coming soon. We will be finalizing the negotiating team members in the next few weeks. 

The stress of budget cuts and testing is all around us. Remember to take time and relax, enjoy the sun shine and be there for each other.
