THE RETIRED WOMEN TEACHERS OF
ONTARIO/ORGANISATION DES ENSEIGNANTES RETRAITÉES DE L'ONTARIO WELCOME YOU
In 1956, a small group of retired women teachers in Toronto got together for
the purpose of trying to persuade the government to raise the level of
pensions for retired women teachers to the same level as their male
colleagues. Their goal would be met some years later, and with it the
realization that retired women teachers needed a voice.
Today, Retired Women Teachers of Ontario/Organisation des enseignantes retraitées de l'Ontario (RWTO/OERO) continues to exist because
there is still a need for an organization that cares for the interests and
well-being of retired women teachers. More importantly, RWTO/OERO provides a
forum whereby retired women teachers can come together for social
interaction, stimulating programs, emotional support and most of all,
friendship.
We invite you to browse our website to find out more about RWTO/OERO. If you are
a retired elementary, secondary, nursery school, college or university woman teacher, please
consider joining our organization and experience the many rewards that RWTO/OERO has to offer.
