Nearly 1,500 Calgary -area school support workers may join thousands of Alberta colleagues on picket lines.

Five groups of education support workers in Alberta will hold strike votes between Feb. 9 and 11 .

The votes come as more than 4,000 education workers in Edmonton and Fort McMurray remain on strike.

Alberta has the lowest per-student funding in Canada , which contributes to high job vacancy rates, union says.
