Message from the President

The NH School Funding Fairness Project (NHSFFP) is a non-partisan non-profit organization dedicated to using grassroots and legislative advocacy to raise awareness of, and spearhead a comprehensive solution to, the twin crises of inequitable school funding and property taxes in the Granite State. Over the past three years we have presented all over the state to the public, business leaders, civic organizations, parent and teacher groups, and everyone in between. We are embarking on a 25-town tour to continue educating Granite Staters on the inequities in the state’s school funding system and empower citizens to take action. Nashua is one of the next stops!

Teacher Retirement Deadline Notice

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.

Sample Retirement Letter

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.

To the past!

This was an interesting question. I'm curious about the future, but I think I'm more curious about the past. It seems many of you are more curious about the past, too. Maybe we could just borrow the DeLorean from Doc Brown and Marty and take a trip!

Just for Fun

Last week, you found out my love of Star Trek. I also enjoy Star Wars. This week's question comes from my enjoyment of both.
