STA Strike Details for February 7
Strike Locations
Locations will remain the same, although we will once again be slightly changing where we walk at those locations, based on your feedback. Please see your specific location to confirm the route.
We received enormous positive feedback from members after the last strike day, regarding the impact that assigning locations had on turnout at Lawson and Midtown - thank you for helping us to make all 3 sites a success! In an effort to once again ensure that our numbers are balanced between all 3 sites, and to spread out the burden of parking downtown, we ask that members attend the following locations, as assigned by schools. If you cannot make a location work due to carpooling, transportation limitations, etc., we understand and trust our members to support the collective interest while also honouring their needs.
New Infographic!
Do you want to get more involved in the STA, but don't even know where to start, or where you might fit in? Take a peek at this infographic, made by Exec member Katie Groskopf, which explains our structure and the roles of each level of governance!
This infographic is timely, because it's time to start thinking about elections already - nominations are due for the two VP positions and general executive members on April 1st at 5:00 PM. Details for how to be nominated and run for those positions coming soon.
Keep your eyes open for a new infographic coming soon outlining our election timeline, including nomination deadlines for different positions, when the candidate forums will be, and when the elections will occur. We do have another one on our website, which you can access by clicking here, if you'd like to check that out in the meantime.
Survey Opportunity
Hey folks, if you're looking for a way to support teachers, or an opportunity for advocating in ways other than picketing, look no further. Please take a moment to share your experiences with the ways in which chronic underfunding is impacting our schools. Click here and then scroll to the Google Form at the bottom of the story.
STA Strike Details for January 22nd
Jan 16 Schedule & Roles - for PDF - Jan 22 School Schedule (2).pdfStrike Locations
In an effort to ensure that our numbers are balanced between all 3 sites, and in an effort to reduce the congestion experienced at Centre, we ask that members attend the following locations, as assigned by schools. Assignments were made in an effort to ensure that there will be approximately the same number of teachers at each location - just over 1000 at each location. We recognize that the Midtown location is complicated by the need to pay for parking, and with this in mind, we will be changing the assignments for the next job action, should it be announced, so that the burden of being downtown and paying for parking is shared across our membership. If you absolutely cannot make a location work due to carpooling, transportation limitations, etc., we understand and trust our members to support the collective interest while also honouring their needs.
