HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY, Fla. — The Hillsborough Classroom Teachers Association is now pushing back against the most recent round of school district budget cuts, saying the district violated the contracts of dozens of teachers. They’re now working to have them reinstated this fall.

This past Friday, the Hillsborough County School District sent out an email to more than a hundred instructors saying it’s unlikely they will have a job next school year because of budget problems.
