I understand; however, you are mistaking causal and correlation.  I have not read anything here or anywhere else online about this that shows that this "strike" will solve the problem.  All I see and hear is a lot of emotion and foot stomping from people refusing to step up to the plate and do the work of changing laws and policies while depriving children of their right to learn.

All I see and hear is a lot of emotion and foot stomping from people about how other people shouldn't protest because it won't do anything anyway.

Will the strike, all by itself, magically solve this problem? Nope. Is it a start? It sure is.

No, it is a good reason for you to throw a hissy fit and have it be seen as marginally acceptable behavior.  Go back and read the posts.  The people who are stomping their feet are the ones casting shade and acting out because they want to have a strike.  It is no wonder that teachers are treated with such disdain by so many.  It would behoove us all to remember that we will accomplish more if we use reason and intellect instead of hysterics and screeching voices.  A strike serves no purpose and it is a start to nothing.

I am another teacher who will refuse to strike and who absolutely will not walk out.  I will be in my classroom doing my job and teaching whichever children are there for me to teach.[/quote]

I’m sure the parents of your students will clearly see the message you’re really sending. Be prepared for consequences.
