The Minnesota Teachers Retirement Association active members soon will choose two representatives for the Board of Trustees. Two members will be elected for four-year terms which begin July 1. Six candidates are running for the open spots, and Education Minnesota has decided to provide members with multiple opportunities to learn more about the candidates before making their voting decision.
Education Minnesota will be sending all candidates a questionnaire and, from those answers, creating a digital voters’ guide sent out via email. Also planned is a virtual “meet the candidates” event before voting opens, which members will receive information about via email. The event will be recorded and shared out for those who cannot attend live.
Information on the candidates and election will also be shared on Education Minnesota’s website and social media channels. Voting will be open mid-March through April 21. Voting information will go to active members from the Minnesota TRA. More information is available at www.minnesotatra.org.
