Your PFT Officers and Site Representatives want to welcome you back to the 2022-23 school year. We have high hopes that we will continue to forge ahead with the same heart, dedication, and stamina that have seen us through the past few years. Thank you for everything you do every day for our students. Your efforts matter, and we appreciate you.
Sandra Larsen, our PFT President, retired from teaching in her classroom this past spring, but we are fortunate to have her continuing to serve as our president. We are currently in negotiations to secure a new three-year contract for July 2022 through June 2025. Todd Siders (CGHS) is our Chief Negotiator, and our PFT team is working from the input they received during last year's Sunshine Survey process. We will keep you updated on new developments as they occur.
Have a wonderful 2022-23 School Year!
In Unity,
Your PFT Leadership
