March 2018 Meeting

The March meeting will be held at Colonial Park on Monday 3.5 at 3:15 PM.  All E-Board members and Building Reps must attend!  All STA members are welcome and encouraged to attend!

Please note: Middle School employees should attend the meeting being held by the superintendent instead of our meeting! Members have been positive about this chance to talk informally, without administration present, to the superintendent and we do not want you to miss that chance! We will be sure to get any information you miss at our meeting to you! Thank you and I look forward to seeing everyone else on Monday!

Welcome Back – A Letter from the President

I hope you all have had a restful and relaxing summer!  It’s hard to believe it’s gone by so quickly!  This year will be a busy one for the STA.  We will be working with a new superintendent and negotiating 4 new contracts: teachers, paraprofessionals, secretaries and cafeteria workers.  Your input prior to negotiations will be crucial to our negotiation (P R & R) team.  We have a link on our STA website to provide such input, but you will also be receiving a survey electronically prior to the winter break.

You can find a list of our STA leadership as well as meeting dates on our web site: http://Stoneham.Massteacher.org.

Should you need to contact me, the best way to reach me is to email me at stoneham.teachers.president@gmail.com or to call me at Robin Hood School 781-279-3870 extension 211 and leave a voicemail message.

I am looking forward to welcoming you all back to school on Monday, August 28^th at 11am, where I will introduce our officers, building reps and negotiating team to you.

Enjoy your remaining days of vacation!

Sincerely,

Donna M. Lazar
President
