NEOEA Day

This year's NEOEA Day is Friday, October 13, 2023. NEOEA Day represents your dues dollars at work. Attending NEOEA Day programs, most of which provide growth opportunities at lower-than-usual prices, is an excellent way to get some of your NEOEA dues dollars back!

The educators who established the North Eastern Ohio Teachers Association in 1869 could not have anticipated many of the changes which have happened in our profession: higher academic standards for teachers, educator unionization, high-stakes testing, and the inclusion of classified staff alongside classroom teachers.

Most of NEOEA’s local affiliates have contracts that reserve NEOEA Day for professional development activities, and many local school districts call the NEOEA office to learn the dates of future NEOEA Days. NEOEA Day will take place on:

• October 13, 2023
• October 11, 2024
• October 10, 2025

Our 2022 NEOEA Day Catalog is available at http://www.neoea.org/files/ND2022.pdf.

As always, NEOEA seeks providers of quality programs for the upcoming NEOEA Day. The process of planning NEOEA Day begins in the spring, as NEOEA staff sends Requests for Proposals (RFP) to an extensive mailing list. Members who know of a potential NEOEA Day program provider who is not receiving the RFP packet should encourage the provider to contact the NEOEA office at desk@neoea.org to receive an RFP and be placed on the distribution list.

As an NEOEA member, you have the ability and we welcome your participation in offering programs of interest related to your area of expertise to members in and around your local. Many useful sessions on NEOEA Day are prepared and hosted by our members. For ideas on hosting an NEOEA Day program, go to neoea.org/files/Hosting-ND-Program.pdf..

Presenters: Thinking of proposing an NEOEA Day program? Each February we have a Chairperson Orientation as we go over the RFP packet and provide suggestions on designing successful programs. Join us on Thursday, February 23, for our Chairperson Open House. If you would like to be included in the orientation, send us an email at desk@neoea.org. Are you looking for a topic?
