Detroit Teachers Won't Get 10% Pay Cut After All

 

Detroit school teachers got good news Tuesday.

The Detroit Public Schools' state-appointed emergency manager, Jack Martin, nixed plans to cut teacher pay by 10 percent and increase class sizes -- moves considered to help offset a $127-million budget deficit.

Teachers and parents sharply criticized the cuts and the bigger classrooms.

The 10 percent cut was to apply to all teachers and administrators Oct. 1.
