Greetings!
Despite the lack of basketball games to watch, a great time was had by all SEA members who attended the March Madness Mixer last week at Tekela’s! What a fun way to wind down with friends on a payday Friday! Congratulations to the raffle winners–Marissa Caputo from Sylvan, Kathy Jensen from Northview, Andrew Shilling from Southview, and Lindsay Kinsey from Stranahan! Enjoy your Tekela gift certificates!
A SMILING ARBOR HILLS CROWD WAS IN THE HOUSE!

Welcome Colleagues!
It is a sunny Sunday afternoon here in Sylvania as I write what is the first of many posts for our new website! I attended a training seminar last Wednesday with Dan Greenberg, and together we are going to navigate the unfamiliar world of WordPress to keep you up-to-date and “in-the-know!”
I thank you in advance for your patience and understanding while we work to add content to the sidebar categories. We also plan to create a picture gallery of “Members in Action!”
Be sure to mark your March calendars with these important dates:
Monday, March 13th–SEA Meeting at 4 p.m. in the Northview Library
Friday, March 24th–SEA March Madness Mixer from 3-6 p.m. at Tekela’s on Main Street. Come and enjoy the free food, and hang out with friends!
In closing, I invite you to answer this “call to action.” Click on the link below to say NO to teacher externships!
