It’s back to school today for hundreds of thousands of public elementary school students across southern Ontario, including those in Waterloo Region.
Super Tuesday, as it was dubbed, was a one-day walkout involving teachers with eight school boards, and was in protest of the McGuinty government’s Bill 115.
The final rotating strikes are slated for today in a number of other regions.
However, Elementary Teachers’ Federation President Sam Hammond warns of another mass walkout – in January.
He says it will be a day of protest, much like those held in the 1990’s.
