• Para recertifications. Most of us will be due next June. Start gathering your materials now.  If you need help see Lorraine.

Old Business:

• Hours substituting for teachers – please keep track as we will need this when we are in negotiations this year.  We want to negotiate additional salary, if possible.

• It is important for us to attend school board meetings this year.  Please sign up.
