Local elementary teachers are planning to stage a one-day strike next week in Windsor-Essex, resulting in public elementary schools being closed.
The Elementary Teachers' Federation of Ontario, representing public elementary teachers has announced plans to hold a one-day strike at four school boards in Ontario including the Greater Essex County District School Board.
It will take place Wednesday, January 29.
The Greater Essex County District School Board says if a deal isn't reached by Tuesday, January 28th, the one-day strike will require all public elementary schools to be closed on Wednesday.
This does not affect public high schools which will be open as it is a scheduled exam day.
