open negotiations
I would like to know more about what is normally shared during negotiations. Does the district open their books? Are districts willing to be flexible as long as it does not efffect the bottom line?
I see it happening more and more the next several years due to the books being so bare. I wonder how long teachers will be willing to take soft and hard freezes? 2 years? 5 years? what choice will they have? what other jobs will be out there for them? a lot of good ones will probably take better paying jobs in other fields. we will keep the others.
As finances continue to deteriorate the paradigm shift will become more prevalent. That shift follows what Tim just said-what choice will teachers have but to stop expecting 4 and 5% raises.
