Teacher strike ends

On February 14th ABC news writes an article titled Denver teachers strike ends with 'historic' deal

This article has a good ending for our teachers, which is nice since we don’t see very many happy endings in our news anymore.  A strike for teachers in Denver, Colorado has come to an end.  Teachers went on strike due to wanting a pay increase, and they have received it.  Unfortunately, things had to be taken to the extreme for this to happen.  I strongly agree that teachers should receive more pay.  I know I couldn’t do their job.  Yes, they have the luxury of summers off, but the rest of their year is very stressful.  Teaching kids and having to deal with parents too is not an easy job.  Teachers are like a parent away from home, and they have very strong influences on the youth during our most vulnerable stages of life.  Thank you teachers for all you do!
