Not at one particular site or have specific job-related issues? I am happy to meet with special groups within our membership. Call me at 365-1715 to set up a time to chat.

Rep Council approved goals for 08-09. One the main goals is to set up a functioning Political Action Committee. If you would like to help recruit, interview and set up a campaign strategy for electing quality school board members, please call contact Larry Baker at Vaca High.

If you are interested in promoting the good work of your fellow members, please contact Brenda Hensley at Jepson.

If you are interested in improving communication within the Association, contact David Billings at Vaca High.

If you are interested in developing organizing plans for members, contact Corey Penrose at Vaca High.

This is going to be a busy, yet focused year for VTA. I am looking forward to seeing all of you at your sites in the next few months.
