RENTON, Wash. — Public school teachers in Washington continue to resist returning to the classroom during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Renton teachers have voted not to return to in-person teaching.
Kiro reports the Renton School District had planned for preschool, kindergarten and self-contained elementary special education teachers to return to classrooms Wednesday.
The teacher’s union says the district failed to address the safety concerns from school nurses, teachers and staff considered to be high-risk.
