Do it, strike now. All schools can then hire veterans to replace them.

Teachers loved remote teaching from home during COVID.

Well guess what? They can now be replaced by teachers from anywhere, including India.

This is Ohio not Florida.

Our governor is a deep state leftist stooge who shut us down and mandated masks and vaccines.
