Engaged At Jeffers Hill

The Sun has a fun story about 10 (or 11 if you count one who moved out of town) teachers and staff at Jeffers Hill Elementary School who got engaged this year. The staff overall totals 65. All are women except for Dan Tucci, a physical education teacher.

The teachers deny that the momentum of one engagement after another prompted them to pressure their boyfriends - or in the case of Tucci, his girlfriend - to pop the question.

But they laughingly say the school could use all the engagements as a hiring incentive - telling prospective teachers that if they come to Jeffers Hill, and they'll be married before they know it.
