Catholic high school teachers in Philadelphia end strike

From the Catholic News Service: Students at 17 Catholic high schools in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia have returned to their classrooms after lay teachers ratified a three-year contract and ended a two-week strike. The 711 lay teachers had objected to several proposals by the archdiocese, including one that would have allowed anonymous student complaints against a teacher. That proposal was revised to require that complainants be named if disciplinary action could be taken against the teacher.
