In recent weeks, teachers have held demonstrations outside local schools in an effort to get legislators to pass a budget that gives all employees cost of living raises. Legislators have not reached an agreement on a budget.

According to a flyer, the teachers' association wants to know what school workers want to do next to demand a budget before the winter break.
