It's "screw your buddy" as far as the National Extortion Assn. is concerned.
(edit) Sorry to hear the news. Are there any private schools in the area she could apply to? The pay & benefits aren't as good....but private schools are a growth industry nationwide.

You hit the nail on the head, Paul! If the union would have agreed to a 1 yr pay freeze, and miniscule payment into their benefits, which most of the employees were for, this could have been avoided. But the union wouldnt budge. But this isnt just her district. It's happening statewide. So there will be alot of competition trying to find another teaching job.
Moses, the admin said they couldnt afford to lose anyone from the central office. because there is "way too much paperwork to do".
