Although the issue of raising class sizes was dropped, it would have been something that affects <I>all</I> students in a negative manner. Teachers have a right to express their opinions. Negotiations have been going on for too long and something has to be done; it's a last resort. It's good that the strike's been cancelled, but the school system should pay more attention to the concerns of teachers, students, and parents.Lolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17892907146837434815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36838534.post-8539954884606373692007-02-12T15:21:00.000-05:002007-02-12T15:21:00.000-05:00This is such a disservice to the children of Bosto...This is such a disservice to the children of Boston. Last time I checked, BPS teachers were among the best paid in the state with a benefit package that makes the rest of us working stiffs drool. I hope other parents and residents express their outrage and offer to keep the schools open. This is one line I will happily cross.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36838534.post-2534049864054790852007-02-12T15:06:00.000-05:002007-02-12T15:06:00.000-05:00I just heard that this could turn into a two day e...I just heard that this could turn into a two day event, getting an early start on school vacation. Boston kids are under-achieving by the thousands, parents will struggle for child care. Can't the teachers union settle this some other way?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36838534.post-10170819320307255482007-02-11T11:19:00.000-05:002007-02-11T11:19:00.000-05:00The district ought to try to settle the contract!The district ought to try to settle the contract!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
