STATEMENT FROM
Dr. Thomas F. O'Brien - Superintendent of Schools
Contrary to some press reports, the Archdiocese has made no decision regarding high school scheduling beyond Monday. Classes could resume as early as Tuesday if a tentative contract agreement is reached over the weekend and the union membership ratifies the agreement on Monday.
On Monday, September 8th, the 22 high schools of the Archdiocese are closed, with no sporting events or activities because of the strike.
Editor's Note
Contract talks began 1:00 p.m. Saturday, September 6th and continued throughout the afternoon. It is not yet known what time talks will conclude. An update will be posted at the appropriate time.
