Association Representatives

Association Representatives (ARs) attend regular meetings as a governing body; represent the interest of the members in their buildings or department, report to their members business transacted at their regular meetings, recruit and maintain membership, serve as an advocate, contract arbitrator, organizer, communicator, coordinator for the OEA-CAF and NEA FCPE, and otherwise assist in the work of the Association in their respective building or department. OEA members elect ARs in the spring for the following school year. The Bylaws of the Association guarantee ethnic minority representation in Association Representatives in proportion to the ethnic minority membership in the Association.
