Retired School Personnel (CRSP) held its last meeting of the 2022-2024 term Thursday, April 25, at Ranchers’ Steakhouse at 10 a.m. Delegates to the state convention in Corpus Christi April 15-17 were Gail Johnson, JoAnn Sugg, and Gayla and Gerald Linton. They gave a brief report on information shared by our state organization regarding membership, number of COLAs and stipends given out (first cost-of-living increase for retired school personnel in about 20 years), the stability of TRS, and plans to redesign the TRS website in mid-2024. In 2017, TRS Care was in trouble, and some difficult decisions had to be made to save it. Currently, TRS Care is in good shape. In May 2024, TRS will recommend the board open up enrollment for the Medicare Advantage TRS program for 2025-2026. Members can re-enroll. Then, at the July 2024 meeting, TRS will recommend lower premiums in the future. Statewide total of community volunteer hours in 2023 was 5,133,446 hours (our chapter donated 83,968 hours). Statewide, TRTA members distributed 141,582 books through the Children’s Book Project (our chapter’s total was 32,315 books). New state officers were installed for the next two years.
