Substitute Representative Elections -- REOPENED

Did you know Substitute Educators have a separate contract from the one our Certified unit educators just voted to ratify? PAT Substitute Negotiations begin in February, and we know we will be able to settle a strong contract with YOU involved!

After seeing the great engagement of substitutes during the strike, we know we need a strong (and large) representative team to help support the Substitute Bargaining campaign and represent Substitute members.

We have chosen to reopen substitute rep elections, in order to allow additional substitutes to run and be elected as Substitute Representatives. You must be a PAT member to run as a substitute Representative. Nominations are due Tuesday, January 16th, 2024.

Please review the role of the PAT Representative, and then submit this self-nomination form by Tuesday, January 16.

*If you already ran to be a Substitute Rep in the Rep Election in December, you do not need to run again, as you have already been elected to be a Substitute Rep. This reopening of the election is simply to allow additional people to run to be reps.
