Nazareth educators will stay home to teach if school board won’t bargain, attorney tells school board
Updated Feb 03, 2021;
Nazareth Area School District teachers plan to educate virtual only unless the school board reaches a new bargain agreement with them, an attorney representing the union told the school board this past week.
An attorney hired by the Nazareth Area Education Association in a letter dated Jan. 29 made allegations the district ignored state and federal safety recommendations without bargaining a decision or its impact on workplace safety. It isn’t clear if any specific decision or incident prompted the letter; Aris Asdourian, vice president of the Nazareth Area Education Association, could not immediately be reached for more information Wednesday morning.
