May 8th, 2015

Earlier this week we advised you that the Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario (ETFO) were in a legal strike position effective Monday May 11, 2015.

This afternoon Sam Hammond, president of ETFO Ontario, formally confirmed that public Elementary Teachers in Ontario will begin phase one of job action on Monday.  Mr. Hammond indicated that extracurricular activities will continue, and teachers will withdraw from professional development activities at both the local and provincial level.

We want to assure you that we will be communicating regularly with parents and students as new information is available.  Our priority continues to be the success, safety, and well-being of our students.

Please continue to check www.wrdsb.ca/labour  and twitter @WRDSB for information updates.
