The Broward Teachers Union has filed a lawsuit against the Broward School District to stop them from hiring new teachers.
The School District laid off close to 400 teachers in June but voted to rehire 124 of them to fill jobs. The district is also looking for 89 additional teachers they claim the laid off teachers aren't qualified to fill.
The union requested a list of the names, certifications, and assignments of the rehired teachers on July 2 and they have not yet received it, prompting the law suit.
In a written statement, union president Pat Santeramo said: “Everyone has a vested interest in making certain Broward school officials fulfill their legal obligations under the Public Records Act. District officials continue to let their employees and the public down by their failure to provide public information as required by Florida law.”
