PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE Congratulations to our endorsed candidates that won their respective elections! It is so important to elect education-friendly politicians because they vote on so many education-related issues—pay, class size, assessments, school funding, the list is endless. If you worked as a poll worker or a yard sign blitzer, thank you. If you made calls supporting our endorsed candidates, thank you. If you allowed us to put a yard sign in your yard, thank you. If you put a bumper sticker on your car, thank you. There were so many ways to help our endorsed candidates this season, and so many of you stepped up to the plate—thank you. Many of these endorsed candidates owe their win directly the work of our members and we won’t let them forget that. Thank you for all that you do and thank you for all that you have done in this election season. WHAT’S HAPPENING All meetings are at the JCTA office unless otherwise specified.
