LAUSD seeks strike injunction
Trying to prevent a one-day teachers strike scheduled this month, the Los Angeles Unified board decided Tuesday to seek an injunction against the teachers union alleging unfair labor practice.

District officials argued that the work stoppage scheduled for May 15 would violate the contract which was tentatively agreed to earlier this year.
"Teachers have a contractual obligation to be in our classrooms instructing students every day," said Superintendent Ramon Cortines in a written statement.

This may be true but LAUSD has done a poor job of providing safe and secure sites for students and teachers. Principals are protected and coddled even by this newspaper putting children and teachers at risk. There is no system for just checks and balances. Retaliation is rampant and vicious if a teacher reports violations of contract, abuse, cheating on state tests,assaults or attempts to protect the well being of students. Not all teachers are perfect but the system has created a no win situation. I've got more but the Daily News has refused to even hear the "other side of the story".
