Our theme this year is “Life is a Game - Enjoy Every Move You Make.  We will be busy enjoying every moment of the very busy year we have planned ahead.

With the Installation of our Board of Directors on September 12, 2009, we celebrated 81 years of Service to the Staff and Students of Los Angeles Unified School District.  Our keynote speaker was newly elected Board Member Steve Zimmer, a 17-year LAUSD veteran teacher, counselor, and community activist.  He acknowledged our continuous years of work and dedication and presented each board member with a certificate of recognition. 

California Association of Educational Office Professionals (CAEOP) President Kathryn Miller, along with CAEOP Vice President Membership Kathy Ramos, was our installing officer.  Kathryn also gave an update on CAEOP. 

National Association of Educational Office Professionals (NAEOP) Southwest Director Becky Shipley gave an update on next year’s national conference and the upcoming Southwest Professional Days Conference. 

Recognitions were given to Ira Ehrlich, our Webmaster who won NAEOP third place for our website, and to Mike Krufka for his long outstanding commitment to AEOE.  We celebrated Helen Aposhian’s birthday, who has been a member of AEOE for 64 years.  It was a very nice social afternoon.

This new year, we will be continuing our college scholarship program, Administrator of the Year, Office Professional of the Year, Classified Supervisor of the Year, Elementary Poster Contest, Middle and High Schools Writing Contest, and our professional development and tuition reimbursement program.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.  We look forward to a busy new year.

Warmly,   

Rosemary Duff, President
