TO ALL RETIRED TEACHERS FROM: PUBLIC RELATIONS COMMITTEE:

As educators with great memories from parents and grandparents, we have an incredible collective recollection about our classrooms over the past decades. This would be a great time for us to record a few of our favourite memories…why I went into teaching…the time in Grade 8 that I got caught…

Public Relations is considering compiling such a small inexpensive book, as our contribution to Manitoba 150.

Just write down your best story, email it to office@rtam.mb.ca labelling it “Vignettes”, You could also mail it to our office, or hand deliver to our AGM May 6,7. We have chosen this deadline to accommodate our snowbirds. §
