“The expo is geared towards students, teachers parents and the Toledo district in general. But one of the things that we have done is that we’re bringing the BNTU National Executive officer, National Executive Secretary, and she will be dealing with whatever grievances because, you know, right before school begins, we have some serious grievances. And then we’re also bringing our supervisor, who is sister Keisha, who will also be discussing loans and other things that BNTU can offer. In addition, we’re bringing the P.C.C and the P.C.C brings with it Dickey Bradley. And so we’re bringing everything  for teachers to be able to be back in the classroom and be comfortable.”
