Dear North Bergen Federation of Teachers Union Members,

On Friday, March 4, 2016, there is a Dress Down Day to benefit another union's scholarship fund. As a show of unity, the NBFT is asking that you forego the Dress Down Day and wear blue clothing that conforms with the District’s dress code. The NBFT has its own scholarship fund that awards over $6,000.00 worth of scholarships to worthy students in the elementary schools and high school. Information about the NBFT Scholarship Fund is available from any officer or union representative.

In this negotiation, it is important that we show unity in all things. Wear blue on Friday, March 4, 2016 and DO NOT dress down.


In Solidarity,

Elizabeth Lynch 
President, NBFT
