2013 Spring General Banquet and Elections

May 23rd is the date of our Spring General Meeting and elections at the Best Western Lamplighter Inn from 4:30 pm - 7:30 pm.  A lovely dinner will be served at no cost to members and registration is now open at tvotpd@gmail.com or by telephone at 519-641-3936.  Confirmations will go out to those members registering, provided space is available.  We have had situations arise whereby members insist they have emailed registrations but have not received confirmations from us.  In these instances, we would ask that you re-send your request or call in to confirm receipt.
Nomination forms for election to the 2012 - 2013 Executive are available in the upcoming newsletter so consider this opportunity to serve the membership.

As with all our meetings these are well-attended, important membership events and it is in your best interests to inform yourselves about what is going on in these ever-changing times in education. It is also a chance to meet your peers and exchange information - occasional teaching can be very isolating.

TVDSB has opened registration for the June 7, 2013 paid PA day - all day conference at Althouse College, UWO.  ** Registration for this event is through the Employee Portal and space and these workshops are proving very popular so register soon.

EARTH DAY is April 22nd this year.  Earth Day was first established in 1970 and is recognized by countries around the world as well as by the United Nations.  There are wonderful resources available to you to educate and celebrate this day!
