About the Election
The Committee Chair Election will take place first. Candidates will be allowed a maximum of two minutes to address the Committee. Candidates will address the Committee in alphabetical order by last name. Following the final candidate’s statement, voting will take place to elect the Committee Chair. If the elected Chair was also running for an SSR position, they would be removed from the pool of candidates.
The SSR Election will take place directly after the Committee Chair Election. Again, candidates will be given a maximum of two minutes to address the Committee, in alphabetical order by last name. Following the final candidate’s statement, voting will take place to elect the four SSRs. The four candidates with the highest vote count will be elected. If there is a tie for the final spot, a secondary vote will be conducted between the tied candidates.
Elected candidates will begin their term on July 1. Any further details regarding transition or onboarding plans will take place after the election.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Larissa Snider, Substitute Teacher Committee Chair, at substitutes@saskatoonteachers.ca.
More information and an invite to the June 10 meeting will be sent out closer to the date.
