Extra Credit

Some good news: the Newmarket Teacher's Association voted on Wednesday to switch health care providers resulting in an anticipated savings of $357,000. Yes, that's right, $357,000 IN SAVINGS.

I have a feeling that there's a lot behind this decision. I know a little about the history between the Teachers Association, the Town, the SAU, and the community and I'm pretty sure that things said by all sides have been unfair at times. 

I keep thinking about ways to write about this and take all sides into account. But for now I'm just going to say thank you to the teachers. You didn't have to make this switch, but you did it and I'm grateful. 

I hope that the community recognizes this and stands behind your efforts.
