Have an idea for the Just for Fun section?  Send it to Adam (president@nashuatu.org).

Just for Fun

Our March Madness: School Staff Fantasy Edition has come to an end. With a whooping 84.4% of the vote, a 4-day work week is the big winner. This comes as no surprise as it is something becoming more common in the private sector. Will it ever make it to our school district? I have no idea. Good luck to ever has to negotiate those contracts!
