Wishing you a Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to you and your family!

As the new year begins, your SGTA Executive Board would like to take a moment to say thank you for being a supportive and loyal union member!

We are proud of our continued efforts to bring our teachers from all sites together and to stand for what is best for our students! Our collective bargaining agreement is scheduled to go to the school board for approval on Tuesday, January 8th. So retroactive checks are just around the corner!

Read below for exciting opportunities to show your support for public education and to find out about a special Happy Hour dedicated to celebrating all SGTA Teachers!

Cheers to another great year!
