CEA-R JOINS THE REACH OUT AND READ PROGRAM
CEA-R to donate books to the CEA Reach Out and Read Book Drive
We will again participate in the book drive. We are collecting new books for children age 6 months to 5 years.
The books will be distributed to doctors' offices and to clinics. The books will be given to children visiting the offices.
Often times, these are the only books the child may have.
Books may be brought to any CEA-R meeting or to the CEA office. For pick-up and/or questions, call Marilyn at 299-4841.
Your help will really be appreciated with this project.
There is a bogus organization conducting a phishing scam of educators -
many of them our members - that you and your members should know about.
They call themselves the National Teachers Education Association and are
using NEA's address as their contact information. The message identifies
itself as coming from the Executive Secretary - Susan Landen.
The message tells recipients that they have been nominated for induction
into the National Teachers Hall of Fame - and directs them through a
series of internet prompts to find out more - and asking the recipient
for more information.
There is a National Teachers Hall of Fame. It's in Kansas, and NEA has
been a long-time supporter. But this is NOT a Hall of Fame initiative.
NEA's ITS Department has reported the information to the Anti-Phishing
Working Group (APWG), http://www.antiphishing.org. (The APWG is the
global pan-industrial and law enforcement association focused on
eliminating the fraud and identity theft that result from phishing,
pharming and email spoofing of all types.)
ITS suggests that members who receive a similar e-mail:
* Forward phishing emails to spam@uce.gov
* Report phishing email to reportphishing@antiphishing.org.
* File a complaint at ftc.gov
NEA ITS also suggests that everyone visit the site -
http://www.onguardonline.gov/topics/phishing.aspx - to get more
information on Phishing Scams and to find out how you can protect
yourself.

ARTISTIC RETIREES
Working with Jim Arter, the Director of the Greater Columbus
Arts Council, retired teacher Booker Brooks is attempting to build a list of
interested retired and current teachers from the metro area that would be eager
to find a venue that will allow them to display their art work. The mediums are
entirely open. Mr. Brooks medium is creating unique wood art on the wood
lathe. The idea is to give current teachers an opportunity to relieve stress
and retired teachers to uncover the talent that might have remained dormant
while concentrating on their students for many years.
We are trying to develop a core group of planners to do the initial legwork for
this endeavor. There are some venues that have already been approached and are
receptive to the core idea. Since most venues plan out as much as a year ahead
we must make decisions fairly soon. One new venue will want a proposal within a
month. Any interested teachers are encouraged to contact Mr. Brooks at
614-430-9221 or email to
bookerbrooks@yahoo.com.

Times like these are a good time to remind our members that STRS Ohio pension benefits are safe and secure. See STRS Meetings
