I hope everyone had a great summer and that you were able to find some time to relax, recharge, and spend some time with family, friends, and loved ones. It is hard to believe that another school year is already here.

Before we close the door on another school year, I simply want to say thank you. Thank you for the difference you make every day in the lives of students, for the support you provide to one another, and for the many ways you have strengthened our Local throughout the year. Together, we have shown what is possible when educators stand united in support of public education.
