Strike Averted!

The NTU has called off the strike. School will proceed as normal tomorrow.

From the NTU Website:

The NTU and Board of Education have reached a tentative agreement. Teachers will be meeting tomorrow to ratify at 4:00p.m. at Nashua High School South.

The Board of Education is meeting tomorrow night to ratify.


The Mayor and Board of Alderman will be meeting next week to vote on the agreement. The Mayor has expressed support for the agreement.

AMEN!!! for this. Now only if they can come up with a final one and stop fighting over the contract. Remember you not only hurt the students by going on a strike but also those bus drivers who work hard everyday to bring the students to school. They do not get paid for days off. The only way they get paid is if they are working and school is in session.

And this fighting over the contract hurts the students too. Not only do they feel stressed at finishing things but there self-esteem depends on putting an end to this madness.
