Special News: Join Us at OEA’s First Social of the School Year!
SAVE THE DATE!

Friday, September 12th, 4:00-7:30 pm

La Estrellita Restaurant at the corner of E. 12th Street and 5th Avenue in Oakland

Bring your colleagues and spend an evening relaxing and socializing!

Great food, drinks, and company!; Wondering where your Membership Card is?
You should have recently received a packet of information at your school site, including a welcome letter from your President, information on the change in what you pay for your health care, an announcement about our September 12th Social, "Know Your Contract," and the 2008-2009 CTA Pocket Calendar. But, no membership card! No, it’s not a mistake — we had fully expected to have the membership cards from CTA in August, but were recently told they won’t be ready until September. There should have been a strip of paper in each envelope explaining this, but it was small and you might not have noticed it. Sorry for the inconvenience — your card will be mailed to you as soon as it arrives! Thank you for being OEA members!

Get Involved

We need you! There are many ways you can be involved in OEA; these are just a few:

Join a committee: we need new members on the Contract Action Team (CAT) to organize our membership and make sure everyone is informed and involved.
Serve as your Site Representative; run for an elected office (Executive Board, Officer, State Council, Representative Assembly); Stop by the OEA Center and help answer phones, stuff envelopes, etc.
Share informational fliers you receive with parents and discuss OEA’s vision to "Create Success!
