Retired Teachers Gear Up for Fall

Moore County's Retired School Personnel will hold their first meeting Tuesday, September 3 at 10:00 at the Moore County Schools boardroom.  As retirees, the day after Labor Day is somewhat bittersweet for many retirees.  Though we are thankful to rest from our many years of labor, our hearts are still with the countless children and educators who are going through the familiar fall ritual of "Back to School."

For retirees, gathering with fellow educators is uplifting.  Fall is a great time to engage in activities like volunteering in a school, church, or local agency; advocating for those educators still on the front lines (Moral Monday, anyone?); or mentoring a young person or teacher (grandchildren and great grandchildren included).

President Sandi Keyser has an informative session planned for us as always.  And never have we needed to be more vigilant regarding our retirement benefits and health care.  So come join us.  A followup blog will be posted shortly after our meeting.
