Political Activities

    On February 22, 2013, the Association received a "Cease and Desist" letter, stating that employees of the Garvey School District are not allowed to post any political information on bulletin boards or distribute any political information anywhere on school property, even during non-duty times away from instruction.

    The Association contended that the second part of the Board Policy, which is regarding "Employee Organizations" would be applicable to us and that we could post material on the designated bulletin board, and hand information to our members at lunch and at GEA meetings.

    The District is standing by their order and threatening disciplinary and legal action against violators.

    CTA has filed an unfair labor practice charge with the Public Employees Relations Board on our behalf.

    The School Board will be discussing the issue as an Action Item at the Board Meeting on March 14th.
