Upcoming Events

This is a copy of the email that was sent out to you the day before spring break; I'm posting it here for posterity's sake. There's still time to sign up for the dinner with Dr. Semler--we'd love to see you there!

--Ryan, MLEA VP--

------------
Hello again! Before you head out to begin enjoying spring break there are a few union business items we'd like to make you aware of:

1) On Wednesday, April 9th Dr. Richard Semler will be speaking at the WEA-Eastern office at 5:30. Dr. Semler is running for Superintendent of Public Instruction, and he's got some great ideas on how to bring more sanity to the testing process here in Washington. If you're interested in attending, please let Ryan or Wendy know and we'll get a spot reserved for you!

2) The annual WEA Representative Assembly is in Spokane this year on May 15th, 16th, and 17th at the convention center, and we're looking for volunteers to help make the event a success. There are a number of jobs to be done (information booth, door guard, floor runner, hospitality, and many more); if you're interested in volunteering, the WEA will pay for your sub, and it's a pretty neat experience to see the WEA's premiere event up close. Please contact Ryan Grant if you'd be willing to volunteer a day or half-day.

3) All of us on the MLEA Exec Board wish you a happy and relaxed spring break--you've earned it!

If you have any questions please feel free to ask one of us, or your building reps.

With thanks,

--The MLEA Exec Board--
