November 10, No signed contract means there can be no discussion

  A contract for the Bridgewater-Raynham teachers has not been signed by both parties - the BREA (Bridgewater Raynham Education Association) and the Bridgewater-Raynham School Committee.  Therefore, the contract is still part of an open negotiation.  Once ratified by both parties, the Contract becomes public.  If not ratified, it would remain private as part of the negotiation process.
   Even though many people believe they "know" something about a possible contract - through conversations with friends and neighbors, emails, or most any other method of communications - I cannot comment on any of the supposed topics.  If and when a contract is completed and signed by all parties, then it will no longer be considered an open negotiation.
   I can listen to anyone's thoughts, concerns or ideas, but I am limited in response to "No Comment".  That is tough for me - not to be able to voice my own opinions.  And, it is surprising to others - just ask the Enterprise's David Connolly the first time I had to provide him with a "No Comment".  So, do not take it badly if I do not respond to your query, I just cannot right now on this issue.
