PTO Donations for your bargaining team

We would like to extend our gratitude for the hard work and dedication of the negotiating team: Carey Young, Ashley Hancock and Sara Ziegelmann. One way you can thank them for their hours of volunteer time is to donate PTO to these leaders. Even one donated hour helps. Deadline is May 2nd. Find the PTO donation form here.

Please reach out with questions or to discuss how you can be more involved in WSNA. We will be holding WSNA officer elections in the near future.
