Contract Update - April 28, 2017 - More FAQ's

Colleagues,

Some questions that have come up about the contract information we sent out yesterday.

1)     Reading the Salary Guides - There are two versions of the salary guides. The ones from the actual contract book and a progressions document we put together for the Building Reps and on our website to help people see more clearly where they are.

No way to get results: President Trump at 100 days

By Laura Jackson, School Secretary, Detroit Collegiate Preparatory High School at Northwestern

I’m not impressed with Donald Trump’s first 100 days as president of the United States.

I feel he wants to do a good job but I don’t know if he can. It appears he’s used to pushing people around to get what he wants. You can’t get the best results when people are working out of fear, when the head of any organization, whether it’s business, nonprofit or government, is used to getting his way by intimidation. It’s a scary thing. But I don’t want us to give up on our country or on ourselves.

For Release:  Wednesday, April 26, 2017

Madison – Once again, faculty and staff at technical colleges across the state have voted to re-certify their unions at increasingly large margins, despite repeated attempts by the Walker administration to discourage unionization.  Act 10, which was written to undermine public sector unions, also requires an annual vote to re-certify the union.

A Triple Crown Victory for Public Education

As we all know, public education is under assault here in New Hampshire.  Yesterday, though, we won three important victories, and it is time to take a moment to celebrate and to reflect. Days like today don’t come about too often, especially when opponents of public education control seemingly control every branch of NH government.  But, through the hard work of thousands of people testifying in Concord, protesting outside the State House, writing letters and emails and calling their senators and representative, you won some important victories.  So congratulations, rest up for a day, and get ready for the battles yet to come!
