September 12, 2012: Strike: Day 3

After 3 days of striking, negotiations seem to be coming along.  Teachers are still receiving quite a bit of support from the community, but there have been new propaganda commercials coming out that describe the teachers as greedy and selfish.  They misrepresent the issues at hand.  We are starting to see hostility from community members, most of whom are greatly misinformed.  

I want to be back in the classroom so badly.  But I want it to be fair for all students and teachers just as much.  It is a tough spot, and I can only pray that both sides approach the issue with grace and respect for one another.
