Catholic Board and Teachers Union Disagree on Contract

The Kenora Catholic District School Board and its teachers aren't exactly singing from the same song book.

The separate school board has wrapped up local bargaining with the Ontario English Catholic Teachers Association.

The talks failed to produce a new agreement, so the current contract will remain in place.

Director of Education Phylis Eikre says the deal with ensure at least two more years of labor peace.

However, the Ontario English Catholic Teachers Association says is disappointed with the current position of the Kenora Catholic District School Board.
