Denver teachers are ready to strike over pay raises alone
“Denver teachers are prepared to walk of the job Monday for the first time in 25 years over an incentive-based pay system they call unpredictable and unfair to experienced educators. If teachers get their way in a last-minute deal or after a strike, it could be the warm-up for their greater influence over how city schools are funded. Denver teachers are taking a different approach than the recent strike in Los Angeles and the wave of teacher activism nationwide since last spring, which also prioritized ways to improve schools, not just pay raises.”
