TO THE EDITOR:

In reference to the letter where all school officials, teachers, bus drivers, etc., have a contract. I do know for a fact that the teachers sign a contract every year. My mom taught school for 50 years, 20 of them were at Kirkpatrick. I think Mr. Sapaugh, the principals, teachers need one. These school officials do a lot more than the public thinks. I would not want to be in any of their shoes.
