It took me six years of “due diligence” (discovery of facts) to find out that I, through the loss of a family health insurance policy already achieved at retirement, I had been the “sacrificial lamb” in settling the C-I teacher strike.
My grievance, asking for the recovery of funds expended from 2005 until 2012 and reinstatement of that family policy until 65 will be presented to the C-I School Board at 5:30 p.m. Dec. 28 at the C-I School Forum Room, next to the superintendent’s office.
This is a public meeting.

Add commentthe state of teachers
B. Femling was such a devoted, effective and pleasant teacher. However, in reading many of his open forum letters, it appears that he has, with respect, gone off the deep end. It is not just Femling that has a non-stop "striking" and sense of entitlement attitude though - it is the modern teacher carved by the teacher's union. What else has contributed more than the teacher's union in creating mediocrity in American education, the horrible attitudes of teachers and the awful state of education? Unfortunately, most Americans have emulated their teachers with an edict of entitlement - of demanding from others what you could provide for yourself. We need an education revolution and the first step towards progress is to destroy the union.
