Message from the President
Last week, I hosted listening sessions in partnership with AFT-NH, H.E.A.L, and Rights and Democracy. We had candid conversations about what's going well and what's a challenge. We also talked about things that we would like to see continue and things that need to change. The participants and specific comments will remain anonymous, but the overall discussion and content will be shared with Dr. Andrade. The purpose of these conversations is to get a sense of things and work towards positive changes in our district as well as to work with H.E.A.L and Rights and Democracy to build community coalitions with like-minded people to support students and Nashua schools.
Part of this effort is to also gather data. I know, I'm going to ask you to do another survey. Other locals are doing similar things around the country. We'll be able to see our local data, to be shared with you and Central Office, and it will also be compiled with the other locals participating in this process. To take this survey, please click here.Â
Under the New Hampshire state law, any person over the age of 18 is a mandated reporter. The Nashua School District has two policies related to mandated reporting in accordance with the New Hampshire RSAs. Right now, most of you are in remote learning. Anything that you hear or see on Zoom or Google Classroom could require you to make a remote. Think about it this way, if you were at school and saw or heard it, would you have reported it? If the answer is yes, then you should report the incident. If the answer is I don't know, you should seek assistance in deciding if you should report it. If you are truly unsure of what to do, you can contact the DCYF Intake line and let them decide if it's reportable. Your administration and school counselors are excellent resources.Â
