A spokesperson for Madison Teacher’s Inc. says they were unaware of the timing of the announcement and there was miscommunication with the district over when the news would be made public.
“The decision to do this caught everyone off guard,” MTI Spokesperson Ed Sadlowski said Thursday.
Madison Teachers Inc. leaders have been working with the district on a plan to reopen. Sadlowski says the district has not met many items on MTI’s list of expectations for teachers to come back to schools, including voluntary returns and hazard pay.
