OAPSE 2025 Membership Drive Winners Announced

Last week, at the end of the 2024-25 school year, OAPSE held a drawing to pick winners from the 2025 Membership Drive. This year’s membership drive has a huge success! Local leaders and activists worked for months talking to and educating both new and current employees about all the benefits available when you become a member of the OAPSE family. Hundreds of membership applications were signed. This not only increases our member numbers, but more importantly, increases our effectiveness at the table when it comes to negotiations.

New members, recruiters and Locals who participated in the membership drive were eligible for a number of prizes. Below is the list of winners. Congratulations to everyone and lets keep up the great work in the 2025-26 school year!
