ORTA will be interviewing the STRS Trustee candidates in the spring and provide recommendations if possible. Year End Chapter reports will be available soon.


Additional News:


ORTA has a new travel partner, Overseas Adventure Travel. More than 500 groups, like ORTA, travel with Overseas Adventure Travel (O.A.T.) each year because they are the leader in international travel for mature Americans and solo travelers. ORTA members will also enjoy their small groups, experienced trip leaders, flexible itineraries, and reasonable prices. Not to mention one-third of O.A.T. travelers are retired educators, what a perfect fit!

STRS Ohio Board member Rudy Fichtenbaum, and former Board member Wade Steen, are incurring legal fees, defending themselves against the lawsuit brought against them by A.G. Dave Yost. ORTA will use donations from the Pension Defense Fund to help them, if needed, pay their legal expenses. They have volunteered their time to support Ohio's teachers. Now it's time for us to show our support for them! Make a donation today to the ORTA Pension Defense Fund
