OFSHEEA - Ontario Family Studies Home Economics Educators Association

Thanks to generous funding from Halton Region and the Junior Farmers Association of Ontario, we are pleased to offer the pilot program of Ag in the Aisles. We have chosen to offer this event on a scheduled P.A. Day, with the hopes of attracting occasional teachers who will not be teaching on that day. However any available contract/permanent teachers are welcome to register.
