History of Educator Strikes by MTA Locals

Dedham

May 4 - 9, 2005

Workday picketing deemed a strike

In response to stalled collective bargaining negotiations, Dedham Education Association members protested at the superintendent’s office and picketed at the high school, with some picketing occurring while school was in session. The Massachusetts Labor Relations Commission determined that this picketing was an unlawful work stoppage.

The goal of this site is to share historical information about educator strikes as an important part of Massachusetts’ labor history.
