July 22nd - As outside temperatures reach "negative 15 degrees Fahrenheit", a note pried from the fingers of a gnarled, cold hand protruding from a window of the Central Office (the doors of which have been frozen shut for the past week as a 6-inch layer of ice covers everything within a two-block radius) reveals that the BOE and CAT bargaining teams have reached a tentative agreement on a new contract. A ratification vote will be taken, maybe, if the BOE will finally agree that the part-time teaching employees (who were NOT given the summer off) will be released from their assigned duties for 15 minutes in order to vote. (The BOE has been holding out since mid-June on this final item, defiantly maintaining their position that the part-time teaching employees have many unassigned hours during the day and should use THAT time for union activities.)
