I was told by a union organizer that teachers will be striking this Monday. To protest the plan for going back in person.
Your source is wrong. Also “union organizer” isn’t a title WTU uses.
We cannot strike. It’s illegal. What’s supposedly planned is a sick out this Friday, Oct. 30. It was the subject of the WTU meeting this week. They want to take “strong collective action” if negotiations aren’t successful. I don’t know the exact number but a majority apparently voted in favor of the sick out. From hearsay it sounds like it could be more than one day if not effective.
Aren't sick outs a contract violation?
Not sure. Work stoppage is illegal, but we are entitled to take our sick leave so I’m not sure calling out sick would count.

Unless those people are either 1) in the military; or 2) low wage workers with little education and no money, right?
That's just men, in time of need or people who WILLING go.
And we always screw over the poor, why is this surprising?
Um, I am female and did several years in the Air Force because I had no other viable option after my mom said she wanted me to leave the house. Surprisingly, young people from the south with zero family money or support do not have an abundance of options. You are an idiot if you think most people in the military at the enlisted levels are "willing" to be there in the true sense.

When are they planning on telling parents and staff ?
This entire situation is creating so much mistrust.

If the teachers think they're going to be able to quit en masse and easily find other jobs outside of the profession, they are sorely mistaken. There are SOME jobs for educators out there, but the market can't absorb all of them.
