Advance historic page from Feb. 25, 1977: School maintenance workers on strike
Updated Feb 04, 2021;
A citywide strike by 2,500 school maintenance workers causes disruption to Staten Island school schedules.
Markham Intermediate School (I.S. 51) in Graniteville is the only school in the borough to shut down due to the strike, as it is the only one that does not have a custodial engineer assigned to it.
The strike, now in its third day, causes other schools to operate on a curtailed schedule.
Kindergarten classes are cancelled on Staten Island because contract buses are unavailable due to dismissal procedures in the other grades, according to District 31 spokesman Christy Cugini, adding that if the strike continues, the kindergarten situation will be reassessed.
