BURLINGTON, ON
The wind has gone out of any sail that may have been propelling a teachers strike at the elementary level – any level for that matter.
The Halton District School Board say they are pleased that a tentative local agreement has been reached with the Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario (ETFO) Halton Teachers Local representing more than 2,800 Halton elementary teachers.
The province nailed down their deal with the teachers and now each Region settles local issues. Halton reached a tentative agreement which has only to be ratified by the teachers.
The tentative deal must be ratified by both the local Halton ETFO teacher members and the Halton District School Board.
Terms of the tentative agreement remain confidential until the ratification process is completed. We will pass along whatever we can dig out on the terms of the agreement.
