Toronto Star: Chilean Teachers Strike Drags Into Second Month

Roughly 80% of Chilean Public School teachers remain out of the classroom since their strike began on June 3rd, the Toronto Star reports.

The demands of the teachers include the payment of a bonus, a salary adjustment that had been promised four decades ago, the annulment of a measure that makes history and physical education optional for the last two years of school, as well as steps to address sanitation and a lack of supplies in schools.
