Teachers’ unions are advocating for a reshuffling of funds to preserve the jobs, while concerned stakeholders gathered at a recent meeting at the Community House in Salt River to discuss the crisis. The cuts are hitting rural schools the hardest, and unity and collaboration are being called for amidst the crisis.
