Secretary Negotiations

Contract negotiations on a successor agreement to the current secretary contract are set to begin later this school year. This summer, a Secretary Negotiations team was formed and will start preparing proposals for upcoming negotiations in the near future. In October, the team plans to send out a survey for members covered under the Secretary Contract to assist the team in this process. I would like to thank the members who volunteered to join the team when I asked back in June. The Secretary Negotiating team is as follows:

Gary Hoffman-NTU President
Terri Donovan-AFT-NH Attorney
Kristine Frenette-McKenney-Nashua High School South
Cherie Gaudette-Nashua High School South
Christine Holden-Plant Ops
Allison Lynn-Nashua Hight School North
Kendra Mansfield-Birch Hill Elementary
Amanda Santos-Pennichuck Middle School

Smart Shopper: Earn Cash Rewards  

The cost of health insurance has become increasingly expensive in recent years. One way to keep costs from increasing and earn extra money is to use Anthem's Smart Shopper system.  By using Smart Shopper, an Anthem Insurance member can earn a cash reward every time that person chooses a cost-effective location for certain health care services. A partial list of the cash rewards for various services can be seen here:

Nurses

For the first time, nurses will receive additional credit on the salary schedule for all years of demonstrated registered nursing experience. To receive this credit, nurses must provide written proof of relevant nursing experience to the Human Resources Director, Michael Bowse (bowsem@nashua.edu) no later than September 30, 2025. Here's a draft cover to send to HR:
