HAPPENINGS Inside the West Virginia teachers’ strike When West Virginia teachers went on strike in February, they shut down every public school in the state. Nine school days later, the strike ended with a signifi- cant raise for all public sector workers, the withdrawal of bills to expand charter schools and eliminate teacher seniority, and a promise to convene a task force to find ways to rein in health care costs. Their victory inspired teacher strikes in Oklahoma, Kentucky, and Arizona. Now, one of the strike leaders is com- ing to Portland to talk about how the strike was organized and won. Nicole McCormick is a West Virginia elementary school music teacher and incoming president of her union local. Her appearance is sponsored by Port- land Association of Teachers and the Portland Rising project of Portland Jobs With Justice ■ Time: Monday, July 23, 7 to 8:30 p.m. ■ Place: Portland Association of Teachers office, 345 NE 8th Ave., Portland. ■ Cost: Donations accepted.
