Abstract: The school board reacted by telling the superintendent, who is responsible for personnel, to dismiss the union leadership, an action never previously taken in response to a teacher strike in the state. Fourth, with no precedent for the discharge of union leadership as a result of a teacher strike, this action would be a threat to other unions in the state and could bring the full force of the state teachers' association as well as other local associations in support of the union at rallies and other union actions. A new teachers' union president has taken an antagonistic approach to district administration and the board of education, filing multiple grievances and unfair labor practice charges throughout his first year.
