Burrillville schools open for now

The Burrillville School District's request for a court order compelling teachers back to school has been continued.

Teachers -- who had voted to strike -- returned to the classroom an hour late this morning after Judge Netti Vogel's direction Friday that teachers and school officials to return to the bargaining table.

Contract negotiations have not been settled.

Vogel said if the teachers do decide to strike, she would again entertain the school district's request for a court order.
