I feel awful for the kids stuck in the middle.
Can someone provide a quick summary of the issues involved?
Usual current-era union garbage. Nobody thinks they should be evaluated or fired.
I think it is mainly 3 major things
1. Compensation, raises that equate to 16% over 4 years, which I think was agreed up, but now its more so healthcare contributions and benefits
2. Job security, because of budgets they are closing multiple schools with no plan for the teachers involved at those schools
3. The evaluation system in which the teachers are evaluated heavily on testing scores, which don't take into account a variety of factors, essentially black and white at the moment where here are the scores of your students compared to the scores of other students not reflecting the students past scores or backgrounds.
