January 2023
The Staff Association Board meets monthly and continues to work for you. On February 3 we plan to once again host our Annual Social open to members and guests. This has always been a popular event and we are thrilled to host it again this year. 

Check your emails for more information!!

Occasionally, people will ask why they should join the PBCSD Staff Association. Here is my response to that question:

• First and foremost, there is insurance that you have a voice and support should you need it. If you find yourself under investigation or in the midst of an awkward situation, the Staff Association can provide guidance, help - and in extreme cases - legal assistance, as we have an attorney on retainer.
• Second, it gives you a voice in working conditions, salary, and climate and culture issues in your respective school or department.
• Third, it serves as an insurance policy of sorts “should” you ever find yourself in need.
• Fourth, I am available to help locate information for you.
• Fifth, I am able to mediate between you and others should that be necessary, so that we can all work together.
• Sixth, we award scholarships to students whose parents are members and we have awarded over 25,000.00 in the last few years to deserving students.

In conclusion, your membership gives you support and a voice both here in the District as well as with state legislators who develop so many rules and regulations.

Our membership is open to all Confidentials, Miscellaneous work groups, and District /Area administrators. Please consider joining if you have not already done so!!

Should you need any further information, just ask!
