Have you had a chance to reach out to the new hires in your building?
Remember, we need you to approach EACH new hire, and ask
them to complete their membership form.
If they do not complete the membership form, they will not be receiving all the benefits of membership.
Have you and your fellow reps at your site let your Principal know you would like to set up a short monthly
meeting to check-in and touch base on building happenings?
Want help with this? Ask your Executive Board Liaison for more pointers or to join
you at your next meeting!
Great idea!
Need child care in order to regularly attend these
Association Representative Meetings?
You chose to provide free child care, with responsible sitters at Dizzy Castle!
You would need to sign the appropriate Dizzy Castle & EEA waivers.
