Former bankruptcy Judge Steven Rhodes, who was appointed this year to oversee the district, also said Saturday that DPS would be unable to fund summer school or special education programs after June 30.
On Sunday night, he said in a statement that the union's "choice for a drastic call to action was not necessary" and said that a sickout is "counterproductive and detrimental" to the efforts of those trying to help the school district.
"I understand the frustration and anger that our teachers feel," Rhodes said. "I am, however, confident that the Legislature will support the request that will guarantee that teachers will receive the pay that is owed to them."
Teacher strikes are illegal under Michigan law. Sick-outs earlier this year caused tens of thousands of students to miss class.

Let's see Duggan do a Reagan.
Detroit is our Haiti.
Snyder should build a wall around the Detroit, and at the one gate put up a sign "Welcome to Canada"
I would be willing to swap, even up, all the residents of Tijuana w/ all the residents of Detroit. There are a lot more people in TJ but they are family oriented, religious, and have a strong work ethic.
