IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!!!
This will be the final MCRTA luncheon.
After much deliberation and many
thoughtful considerations, your MCRTA board
has decided that it is time for the MCRTA to retire.
Before the internet became a thing, retired teachers
looked forward to meetings such as ours
in order to connect and stay informed about
matters relevant to education, and to get
together with old friends and colleagues.
It was an important social event.
As our population aged, traveling to meetings
became more difficult, and we found other ways
to connect. Newer retirees aren’t interested in
joining the same kind of groups, as they
have other interests and other ways to
socialize and stay informed.
It has been a struggle to get new folks to take
over leadership roles that some have been
serving for at least 15 years.
It is time.
Medina County teachers are retired...but not tired! Our association did meet four times a year offering interesting and informative programs for our members and an opportunity to reconnect with old friends. We serve Medina County in many ways, provide scholarships to deserving students, award grants to current teachers and did
offer fun trips to our members, their families and friends.
We hope to see you at our last meeting!!
TUESDAY, October 13, 2026
at beautiful Williams On The Lake.
Change is inevitable. We would like your thoughts and opinions about MCRTA. Looking forward to seeing you again, take care and be well.
Mission Statement: Our mission is: to support education, to inform, and to provide social
contact for retired teachers.
From your MCRTA board
Medina County retired teachers are still making a difference!!
