East Greenwich teachers head to mediation

Teachers in Tiverton and East Greenwich will not be reporting for school this morning, but Tiverton teachers will be near Tiverton High School this morning, picketing at the corner of North Brayton and Bulgamarsh Roads.

Larry Purtill, president of the National Education Association of Rhode Island says teachers from East Greenwich are scheduled for mediation tomorrow.

Tiverton teachers have not been provided with a mediator, Purtill said this morning. He said the union will be appealing to the governor’s office for one today.
