[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This decision seems more about money. The city is hemorrhaging money. To be able to start school early in August - they need to stop paying teachers ASAP. They work a 10-month year and there is no money to add more, even if teachers were able or willing to. Charter teachers are on one-year contracts. They have to sort that through before whacking 3 years off the school year. [/quote] They can’t stop paying teachers just because school ends early. Also, not all charters have one-year contracts. It doesn’t matter though because they are all at will employees and can be let go at any moment.[/quote] Schools can furlough or layoff employees but none are doing so. My charter is paying all staff including hourly workers through the end of the school year. [/quote]
