Missouri State Teachers Association says Springfield National Education Association excluded it from contract vote.
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. -- A professional organization that represents about a third of the teachers in the Springfield School District says its members should have been allowed to vote on a new employment contract between teachers and the district. The Missouri State Teachers Association (MSTA) sued the district and the Springfield chapter of the National Education Association (SNEA) on Monday, hoping to get the contract put on hold until all teachers have a chance to vote on it.
