Dear Colleagues,
​
It is with great pleasure that I am announcing the member ratification of the Tentative Agreement between the Vista Teachers Association and VUSD. Despite a very short window for voting you all stepped up and made it happen.  It just goes to show, We Are Vista Educators and we can accomplish anything we put our mind to. The TA now goes to the school board for approval Thursday night. 

Thanks need to go out to all of our members, because together we are strong and together we make a difference. Special thanks to Pat Eamus and our crisis team for all their organizing efforts.  Thanks also to the bargaining team: Ron Ferreirae, Susan Martin, Laurie Kania  Jim Ryan, Erin Dayus, Valerie Holseth, Reagan Duncan and Georgine Tomasi for countless hours and all their hard work. Finally thanks to the Site Reps for supporting VTA’s efforts.  Our successful ratification vote couldn’t have happened without the tireless organizing they did at the site level. You guys rock. 
In Solidarity,
Tod Critchlow
