ANDERSON, Ind. (AP) — A central Indiana school district canceled all classes Wednesday as officials said about 20% of its teachers called off work amid contentious contract negotiations.
The decision by the Anderson Community Schools followed the district closing schools and holding an e-learning day for its 6,500 students Friday after similar teacher call-offs.
Teacher strikes are illegal in Indiana and the school district issued a statement Wednesday saying that teachers were “engaging in an illegal concerted job action.”
The Anderson Teachers Federation said teachers made their own decisions about calling off work.
Contract talks have split over whether health insurance premium increases will leave teachers with less take-home pay.
