Chats with Troy!

This year we are also introducing monthly Chats with Troy! Each month Troy Bacon - your NMUSD Well-Being Coordinator - will discuss a relevant NMUSD Wellness for Life topic, and provide the opportunity for employees to ask questions about programs and resources. This is intended to be a platform for general information, so individual and personal questions should still be directed to Troy Bacon via email at wellness@nmusd.us. All employees are welcome to join any of these sessions on the second Wednesday of each month at 12:00PM. Sign up today to receive the monthly calendar reminder! You are not required to attend even if you sign up.
