BREAKING: With a teacher strike planned Monday in Brookline, Mass., all public schools in the district will be closed tomorrow.

"BEU would rather reach an agreement, but last night's discussions made it impossible for us to accept," Jessica Wender-Shubow, the union's president, told NBC10 Boston.

According to the BEU, teachers within the district have been working without a contract for the last three school years and are"fed up" with the Brookline School Committee and its approach to bargaining. "The educators have been saying for months, actually for years, even before COVID, we have an emergency in these buildings," Wender-Shubow said."We need more staff of color, we need the to stay, we need to show them the respect that will keep them in the district and we have ideas and you are not interested in working with us."

The Norfolk County Superior Court issued a preliminary injunction Friday against the BEU, prohibiting them from striking or threatening to strike. The Court stated that if the union were to strike, “[s]erious and irreparable harm will occur to the Town, the students and their caretakers, and the public welfare.
