Delegates to the BCTF AGM

In addition to our three Local Reps (Shelby Calman, Nancy Palejko and Katharine Shipley) we elected sixteen delegates who will attend the virtual BCTF AGM this March 20-23 and represent Vancouver Secondary teachers’ voice at the provincial table. A HUGE thank you to the dedicated teachers who were willing to put their names forward and volunteer their time in the middle of this year’s spring break to participate.

Thanks Delegates!
