We are hoping that our retired members will join us for a most informative meeting on September 9. Lisa Karstetter, the Microsoft TechSpark manager for Washington State, will join us. TechSpark is an initiative focused on rural communities, supporting programs that expand access to technology and provide education for students and adults to improve their digital skills.
Nancy Grette will give us an update on the past, present and future of the Alatheia Therapeutic Riding Center which we have supported in the past. Then we are invited to visit the center after the meeting! (see information below)
The fall also brings a start to this year's membership campaign. Sharon Salley and JoAnn Lewis are busy visiting school districts to recruit active members (5 new members so far!). Several members attended the DSR Retirement Seminar and CDSRA really made its presence known at the NCESD STEM Summit in Wenatchee. Our logo of support was on promotional materials as well as the Summit tee-shirts. Many participants came to our table to find out about CDSRA.
If you know of retired educators that would like to join us, please bring them to our next meeting.
- Beverly Jagla & Kriss Crilly, Unit 2 Co-Presidents
