"These last few weeks have shown us the only true power is collective power. When cuts were announced, all 12 unions in the board spoke with one voice and reversed the cuts. As we head into collective bargaining we must maintain the same collective voice." - Aloysius Okafor PEOT

citing mismanagement of $$ is crazy for a government that is riddled in mismanaged fund and a historic deficit. it's so sad to see the absolute destruction of our public education systems after years of underfunding.
