So today I received an email from PEA, my professional teaching association. Most of the time I skim and move on. This particular email informed me that another school district here in Utah refused to negotiate teaching contracts for the coming school year. Ogden school district gave their teachers an ultimatum, "sign your contract by July 20th or your job will be open for hire." I was shocked! A rally is planned for tomorrow, Thursday July 14th at 10 am. What is the perception of teachers coming to!! In many nations and cultures across the world teachers are revered and respected. . We are in this together, so we should act like it- parents, students, teachers, administrators, and communities! This about the working rights not just for teachers for every working member of society!
