Official Text

To the Honorable Board:

I hope you will take a moment to read this letter from the SMEA leadership concerning contract negotiations for its membership. In particular you will read the updated information on the school nurses as well as the rest of the Unit A members. I realize this was priority back in May of 2018 when the BOA allowed me and the school nurses to address the board. It’s very important to me that you and the rest of the board as well as the school committee receive this update as I wanted to assure everyone concerned that the SMEA bargaining committee and its leadership did exactly what we stated we would do at the hearing and that was to attempt to negotiate in good faith with the city on the very important matter.

Thank you,

Edward Halloran

SMEA President
