Dear Members of the SW BOCES Community,

In an effort to build community during this difficult time, the BTA has decided to design and sell masks with the saying “We’re All in this Together” “SW BOCES”.   We would like to get an idea of how many people would buy a mask if we purchased them.  The cost of each mask is $7.
Please complete the following form to let us know if you would be interested in purchasing a mask and if so, how many would you like to purchase.

Thank you in advance for your response,
The BTA

Dear Members, 
I often ask Jason to post info to our website to provide guidance and support to our members! This time I am asking you to really take a look! This powerpoint includes info on the following topics and is an invaluable resource! I also urge you to support the Heroes Act listed below! 
  • CDC guidelines on reopening (2-5) *slide #'s
  • Educator Rights to Accommodations & Leave, including age, mental health, pregnancy, FMLA, living with someone who is high risk and childcare responsibilities  (7-22)
  • workers' compensation (23-24) (29)
  • Heroes Act in which many of these extended benefits will end on Dec. 31st if it is not passed! (25) With a click of a button you can take immediate action at: 
  •                 https://educatingthroughcrisis.org/take-action/
  • NYSED Guidance (27-30)
  • NYS Dept. of Health guidance including accommodations, rights and resources (31-37)
  • Please know permission was granted from NYSUT to post this powerpoint. Please do not distribute. 

Sincerely, 
Melissa
