OSTA ANNUAL CONFERENCE IN-PERSON AND HYBRID
FRIDAY OCTOBER 11-- 8:30-3:00
Chemeketa Community College, 4000 Lancaster Drive NE Salem.
For the second time in our 49-year history, OSTA’s conference will be on a FRIDAY, on Statewide In-Service Day. In-person Conference fee includes lunch. A hybrid (Zoom) opportunity will also be available. Follow information on OSTA’s website: ostasubs.org. to contact us about information
The program will include: On-line guest speaker Erin Ruegg: “The First Ten Minutes,” giving tips on how to capture students’ attention in those all-important opening moments of class time. Other highlights include “An Oregon Story”, OSTA officers reports, Oregon Teacher of the Year presentation,
Task Force Report and a preview of substitute teacher issues for the 2025 Oregon Legislature.
Your membership dollars really are important. OSTA doesn’t spend a whole lot of money each year, especially since we voted to, again, have Fall Conference over Zoom, but we, just like any other organization, have bills to pay, and we want to continue to support substitute teachers in every way possible. Membership helps us reach out to Oregon Substitute Teachers via the website, phone calls, office hours, quarterly meetings, and e-mail alerts. We monitor TSPC changes, BOLI rulings and work on legislation that improves the profession
