The Clark County School District and the Clark County Education Association will appear in court on Wednesday amid an ongoing contract dispute.
The Clark County Education Association represents more than 18,000 educators in the Clark County School District, the nation's fifth-largest.
The district claimed that the mass absences affected one school per day throughout most of the week, before causing two school closures on Sept. 8. Four more schools closed on Tuesday, followed by another Wednesday,"It defies logic to suggest that these mass absences constitute anything but the type of concerted pretextual absences that [Nevada law] plainly defines as a strike," the district said in court documents.
"This strike is the culmination of Defendants’ months-long campaign to pressure the District into more favorable bargaining terms by credibly threatening that there would be no school without a contract," the district said in court documents.
