MHUSD Board Meeting Tuesday, March 24 -- Important!
Please attend this Tuesday, March 24 at 6:00 p.m! Can you bring a friend?

In addition, the majority of teachers live within our district and send our children to our schools. Many of our new teachers would like to ultimately live in Morgan Hill which is why the Federation is working to improve salaries and investigate affordable housing for our educators.
As background to the collaborative efforts on compensation by LWTech, the State Board (SBCTC), the college Presidents' Council (WACTC), the state Faculty Association (FACTC) and various Legislators siupportive of Higher Ed, please see AFT Washington's Legislative Agenda.
