Correction Linda,

The teachers have been without a contract for 2 years, not 3. Remember, contracts are dictated by fiscal year. You may have forgotten that, maybe you are a math teacher. Please dont compare window air conditioning units with the contract. 30K was spent on air conditioners, each percent of increase in salary amounts to $1 million bucks. And by the way, the administrators work all summer. Last I checked air conditioning is utilized in the summer. If the job is so awful and the contract sucks so bad, why arent any of the teachers jumping ship and going elsewhere? I guess the teachers forget when they had the best healthcare that money can buy and their contribution was $11 per pay period. They are still not happy being in the top 3% for teacher salary out of 14,000 US school districts, and in the top 2% in the benefits department. NOT ANOTHER PENNY FOR THE PIGS, NOT A PENNY !!

Now they want retro active raises for the past 2 years when they worked to rule. Obnoxious requests that have shined the light on the substandard teachers that produce and inferior product. I never see a teacher at a budget hearing when the nearly 1 billion dollars of unfunded Warwick liabilities are discussed. Another reminder of the sub par effort and product on the part of the Warwick teachers. Graduating seniors are leaving Warwick with a 11% proficiency in science and 17% proficiency in math. Great job teachers, pat yourselves on the back !! How about this, why not fire the 60+% of teachers that dont live in Warwick and dont pay Warwick taxes. Replace them with Warwick residents.
