As you likely know by now, the faculty union for the troubled Capistrano Unified School District has decided that its members will go on strike tomorrow. (Teachers union in O.C. to begin striking)
I’m told that the action was provoked by the district (trustees), which has refused to negotiate and has imposed a low-ball contract (Capo trustees are affiliated with the union-hating Education Alliance, on whose board SOCCCD trustee Don Wagner sits).
Across the state, districts are watching to see what happens.
I’m told that some SOCCCD faculty are considering joining the picketers tomorrow.
To picket, select any CUSD school. Picketing begins 30 minutes before the start of school (usually 8 a.m.) and lasts until 15 minutes after dismissal. Google any school for the bell schedule.
Thursday morning: Capo teachers walk picket lines

I am a former parent in CUSD and I walked the line at two schools this morning. Go join the teachers for an hour or so! Show your support!
Good for you! As a former SOCCCD member of the faculty, I just spent a rewarding morning at Dana Hills High picketing with faculty who were a reasonable and very dedicated group of folks. Support from SOCCCD faculty lets them know they are not alone in this.
