Frustrated educators and parents, some even feeling ashamed of their faith, argue the well-run school is being forced into a larger system without clear justification. Unions demand a pause to allow real dialogue, while school governors insist they’ve held extended talks and believe some stakeholders see potential benefits — but the strike continues as tensions mount over who truly controls the future of this cherished local institution.
