Next Meeting - March 2 - New Attendance Policy

Hey! It's been awhile . . . just a reminder that the next TAB meeting is on Monday, March 2 from 4 - 5 pm at the Centerville library. April reviews are due by then, so email those to us beforehand or bring them to the meeting.

Don't forget that we've implemented a new attendance policy--2 unexcused absences results in a warning, and 3 will result in termination from TAB for the remainder of the year. This is only for UNEXCUSED absences. For excused absences, you can always call or email Elizabeth or Teri G. (in advance of the meeting) if you have a legitimate conflict that prevents you from attending. Just email us at teenadbd@wcpl.lib.oh.us if you have any questions.
