TEACHERS' BARGAINING UNIT
The District 7 Teachers' Bargaining Unit (TBU) represents approximately 350 teacher members in 9 secondary schools and a number of alternate sites in the Bluewater District School Board. Continuing education teachers, home instruction teachers, and secondary teachers in central support positions are also members of the Teachers' Bargaining Unit.
Each school has an elected Branch President. See your Branch President to learn how to get involved at the school and committee level. Current TBU members who do not receive our email communications should email us at [email protected] and ask to be added to our mailing list. |
