Just got this e-mail, via Lisa Millhous, via the PA Federation of Teachers:
Please read this important announcement from brother Ted Kirsch, President, AFT Pennsylvania:As you may know, teachers in the Neshaminy Federation of Teachers bargaining unit have been on strike for 9 days. We are returning back to the classroom, but unfortunately, have not persuaded our school board to return to the bargaining table to negotiate a fair contract.The board has refused to engage in good faith negotiations and has offered one proposal that decimates our rights as professionals. This impasse has lasted for way too long — almost 4 years — and needs to end. Please help us by signing our petition asking the board to negotiate.
At this point, it is not about who is wrong or right — it is about sitting down at the table to negotiate — something our board is refusing to do. Sign our petition here.Feel free to forward the petition information to anyone who is concerned about education.
Thank you!
Take 5 seconds to sign the petition. This is beyond ridiculous.
Hi Seth! Just wondering if this is the same petition?

It’s probably my computer, but the links in your post aren’t working for me.
Thank you for sharing!

It is, Kirstin. Thanks for reposting. I have another email from somebody who tried to access it, too, so I hope this addresses the problem.
