School Board Meeting Recordings

Did you know that the school board trustee meetings are recorded and available to watch on YouTube? It’s a great way for our members to stay informed about the decisions that shape their jobs. In particular, we suggest that members watch the May 2025 meeting:

 

How Can We Honour Our Union Family Members?

Each of us has a role in safeguarding our colleagues. This includes their work and the environment in which they work.

A fundamental part of caring about and for others is seeing each person as an individual within a group, site or union and accepting that each person’s story, their lived experience differs from yours.

Worried about getting caught up in something? Feeling uncertain about something you saw, heard or feel? We all have a part in keeping ourselves, our colleagues, our students and school communities safe. It’s not about blame! It is about problem solving and lending a hand.

If you know of a member that is carrying a lot and aren’t sure what the Union can do, please reach out or leave them a note to reach out.  There are services and offerings we may be able to help with.
