>Readers says if the BOE can afford a slate roof they can afford a raise for teachers
Just because it is something that teachers have volunteered to do in the past, doesn’t mean that they NEED to do it every year. they are working ‘to the contract’ such as it is. If the BOE wants such good faith and good feelings and wants the these types of volunteer activities to continue, they should come to an agreement with the teachers… teachers are now contributing more and more toward their health premiums—this means the BOE has to contribute less and less..SO logic tells us that there SHOULD be monies there for some type of pay increase, not a ZERO % increase—-oh yeah, I forgot, the Ed Center needed a slate roof and copper pipes, really pretty….top notch stuff!
