Souderton Talks Over After an Hour; Movement Was Backward

SOUDERTON, Pa., Sept. 5 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Talks between the Souderton Area School Board and Souderton Area Education Association broke down one hour after they began today. The session ended at noon.

"The school board came in and instead of negotiating what was on the table, threw new items onto the table related to what happens after the strike. The board is obviously more interested in punishing teachers than in negotiating," said Pennsylvania State Education Association spokesman Rob Broderick. "The board obviously doesn't care if the strike continues."

No new talks are scheduled.
