Last week in i-News, the district published a new, temporary policy approved by the Board of Education on December 20th. The policy allows vaccinated staff, who test positive with a PCR test, to access up to 10 sick days that are not deducted from their personal sick time. This is a one-time benefit. Many of you were thankful for this new policy, but others have expressed some concerns.
Since the policy has come up, I have received several emails expressing concern. The main concerns have been relative to applying this retroactively, the specificity of the test, and if it can apply to those who are not eligible to be vaccinated. I have voiced these concerns to Central Office and some members of the Board. I have asked them to reconsider and make amendments to this policy. As I get more information, I will share it through the Board of Directors.
Attention teachers considering retirement at the end of this school year!!!
Under Article 4.9A of the contract, in order to be eligible for your severance, you must submit a binding letter of retirement to the Superintendent no later than February 1, 2022.
I would also suggest that you set up an appointment with the New Hampshire Retirement System. In order to receive your severance, you must provide a copy of your first retirement check.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

Whoa! We have a tie! I know I told you I love Christmas and stuff, but my tree is down and so are my decorations. I took them down mainly because I was going to Los Angeles, but now I'm not. Would it be weird to put my tree back up...now?
