LA Teachers Strike- Madi Haggard

Third Street Elementary School in LA will be open Monday, but as Los Angeles teachers ready themselves to begin their first strike in 30 years, there are so many events happening.  Campus workers have no idea how many students will show up, and parents must decide whether it is worth shipping their children to school at all.  The school district has to figure out what to do with a skeletal staff. District officials say they will keep schools open and feed their students. Most of the district’s 863 campuses located across 710 square miles and 26 cities in L.A. County schools are scheduled to be open during regular hours.  Chances are most people in the area will see a picket line at a campus or witness bands of teachers and union supporters dressed in red.

This protest relates to the guided age because it was back when workers were going on strike for better conditions, pay, and hours. There's a big time difference but either way, the concept is still there.  These teachers want to be paid more for their hard work just like the factory workers.  I think and hope this protest will be successful because I believe teachers are underpaid.  This article was published January   13, 2019, and was made to inform readers who want to stay informed with current events and be aware of tragedies occurring.  It gives them the opportunity to learn what's going on around them.
