The Link Between Your Local and The Ohio
Education Association
ECOEA is one of the 10 District Associations that make up the OEA
network. This structure assures that decisions are made by
representatives from all parts of the state, as the delegates to the OEA
Representative Assembly are elected yearly within each of the 10 OEA
Districts at the Local Association level................About 2/3rds of
the OEA Board of Directors members are elected from units within the
District Associations, and ECOEA is comprised of three of these units.
Each District Association also has a representative on each of the
various OEA Committees
