Three Quincy Teachers Secure Pension Eligibility
Three Quincy teachers Misses Helen Bernard Effie Bernard of 6224 Broadway and Miss Eleanor Cottnam 206 North Twenty fifth street have had their pension fund applications approved by the state commission in Springfield. Each will receive 400 dollars yearly payable quarterly though they are not teaching regularly this year. Each has over 23 years of teaching. Former teachers who taught before the fund’s founding must pay 400 dollars plus interest totaling about 500 dollars to qualify, but current lecturers will pay regular assessments and avoid the extra 500 after years of participation.
