Has this ever occured before? There are too many people that are connected and depend on that school for a way to provide for their families. I understand that this is a small district but shouldnt more emphasis be put upon our worthless school board to come to some kind of middle ground with the teachers union. Who is running the school board? Arent the board members suppose to be representing the citizens of the county in which their/our children attend school at. How much do we value education? If Mr."I have been fired/released from Warroad School district but am good enough to somehow get an extension here. Mr Wymore and the board at LOW schools cant figure a way to find some resolve we are going to continue to lose great teachers and eventually lose the ability to have a functioning school. I am not an expert on much but dont employees have to accomplish big things and have success to "earn" extensions. It will be amazing to see what all the businesses and families that are not directly connected with the school will say when a strike does occur and people have to cut back and not go out to eat and instead of their children are at school they are going to have to pay out of their pockets for day-care. Think of all the businesses that will feel the pinch. All because of an ego driven super with a fair share of the board members that represent us all to scared of their own shadows to look out for the better of Lake of the Woods School District. Come on People... This will hurt us all if we all dont speak up and be heard. It seems no ones cares but you will all care soon enough if nobody will stick up for the educators of LOW.</p> <p>Regards<br /> hickfromstix</p> <br class="clear" /> Tue, 12 Jan 2010 23:53:23 -0600 Hickfromstix comment 101 at http://www.baudetteregion.com http://www.baudetteregion.com/news/news/district-teachers-need-agreement-101 <p><strong>by Penny Mio<br /> editor</strong></p> <p>The educators at Lake of the Woods may go on strike, and the school could be fined $15,000 if the contract between the teachers’ union and the school district is not finalized by January 15th.</p> <br class="clear" /><p><a href="http://www.baudetteregion.com/news/news/district-teachers-need-agreement-101">read more</a></p> http://www.baudetteregion.com/news/news/district-teachers-need-agreement-101#comments News Tue, 05 Jan 2010 09:17:51 -0600 Cindy Olson 3617 at http://www.baudetteregion.com
