A shocking statement from the head of the teachers' union has sent shockwaves through the education community. Michael Mulgrew, the president of the United Federation of Teachers (UFT), has issued a stark warning to New York City Schools Chancellor David Mamdani: back off on plans to tie bonuses to student performance or face a fierce backlash. Mulgrew has vowed to declare "all-out-war" if the bonuses are not reinstated, sparking concerns about the potential for a contentious labor dispute. As the city's educators prepare to head back to the classroom, the fate of the bonuses and the future of teacher relations with the administration hang precariously in the balance.
