Qbuhto Cwotes Fwc i ofr LPf-fQ The 1977-78 school year began in furied controversy, as teachers throughout the school corporation contem- plated their first strike against the administration. Negotiations between the teachers and the school board began in February, in which the teachers requested a transfer and reduction in force language in the working agreement, specific class size, greater health insurance costs to be paid by the board, salary increase, and an increase in severance and career incentive pay.
