Finally, I want to thank you for your call, and for resolving the misunderstanding.

Sounds as if there was an agreement over the phone, and the board prevailed.

Gee what a surprise...public employees whining about stuff the rest of us accepted years ago.

The way I read this gibberish is it "rescinds" the way the school board interpreted the union's earlier letter.

Accept the letter, abolish the teacher's union and change the law to read that no government or job connected with tax payer dollars may have salaries and benefits exceeding the average wage in the private sector.
