I support the teachers fully and all… but it certainly is making a lot harder to pass grade 9. Cutting into days when i could take tests and certainly removing much potential inquiry work time. And with news soon of a full out strike instead of just this rotating one, this is a bigger deal than most people realize. This stops year end field trips from happening, it takes up time students could work on their finals, and certainly cancels a lot of school grads or proms.

Let us pray that this does not carry on next year, that the government finally gives in and returns to properly funding schools instead of having them resort to fundraising for everything. Schools really need the funding to keep going, the government talks about a better tomorrow, but they really need to think about a better today as well, for without a better today then there will be no better tomorrow.
