February 9, 2008,

I received the following e-mail from our Union Colleagues in Scranton Pa. As you may or may not be
aware, the Catholic Schools in the Scranton Dioceses have been undergoing a restructuring. I think
you will find going to the link and viewing the YouTube Video and some of the articles enlightening,
inspiring, and chilling.

"Dear Colleagues,

I know Rita has written you about our crisis in Scranton. Click on the following link,
www.sdact.com/blog (you will have to manually type this link)

and check it often to view developments. I look forward to seeing many of you next week. Come
with ideas for us on what we might do to win our campaign.

Mike Milz"

Mike Milz in addition to being the President of the Scranton Diocese Association of Catholic School
Teachers is also an officer of the National Association of Catholic School Teachers of which as you
know we are members. Let me know if you have any ideas of how our Lay Teachers Association might
support these teachers.
