ECOEA LEGISLATIVE DINNER

The annual Legislative Dinner was held on Friday, February 28, at LaPizzaria with close to 100 members and guests in attendance. We were honored to have OEA President Scott DiMauro and Vice President Jeff Wensing with us.

All members of the General Assembly and State Board of Education whose districts fall in the six counties served by ECOEA were invited. We welcomed the following guests:

• Representative Scott Oelslager: HD 48
• Representative Jim Thomas: HD 49
• Representative Matthew Kishman: HD 50
• Representative Jodi Salvo: HD 51
• Representative Don Jones: HD 95
• State Board of Education member Rhonda Johnson: District 7
• State Board of Education member Karen Lloyd: District 9

We appreciate our guests making themselves available to participate on the panel discussion where they were asked about public education and teaching in Ohio. A compilation of all questions submitted by members can be found at the button below and have been sent to all our legislators.

A special thanks to Jackson Memorial EA member Roy Dria and his amazing horticulture students for the beautiful centerpieces for this year's dinner. Great job by some very talented students!
