Monroe Public Schools assistant superintendent quick to acknowledge that changes should be made.

Unlike school officials in some other districts, the assistant superintendent of the Monroe Public Schools acknowledges that its union contract for teachers has provisions that are in violation of the state's right-to-work law and says they should be removed.

The union contract, which runs from March 1, 2014 to Aug. 15, 2016, states that a teacher must pay union dues or an agency fee as a condition of employment. That is in conflict with the state's right-to-work law that took effect March 28, 2013.

Assistant Superintendent Ryan McLeod said the school district doesn't follow the illegal practices spelled out in the contract. In particular, he said the district does not deduct union dues from teacher paychecks and also has not followed through on the language to fire teachers who don't pay union dues or an agency fee to the union.

Leftists really don’t care what the law is.
They’ll just do whatever they want to do, unless they are physically stopped.

“Leftists really don’t care what the law is.

But the worst part, in the case of the schools, is that they do the same stuff to our children.
