A hearing is scheduled for Friday to determine whether teachers will show up for future days.


Statement from Buffalo Public Schools General Counsel Nathaniel Kuzma

This afternoon, State Supreme Court Justice Emilio Colaiacovo denied the head of the Buffalo Teachers Federation's request for a temporary restraining order to block the reopening of all of our schools. Both the BPS and BTF have been asked to appear again before Judge Colaiacovo on Friday of this week to present facts and testimony regarding the District's decision to reopen at this time.

The teacher's union filed the lawsuit on Friday out of concerns that the district was not safe for teachers.
