KC Board President Attacks Striking Teachers
Kansas City board president James H. Lyddon accused the teachers union of not prioritizing quality education as it threatened to oppose renewing the half cent sales tax for schools. The vote on May 17 could deny $6.9 million to the district and another $4.9 million to 12 city area districts. With 82 nontenured teachers returning, 610 remain on strike as 41,000 students face disrupted classes. A new united labor steering committee plans actions including letter campaigns and meetings with legislators and the governor.
