“We welcome the teachers back and we want to encourage them to be the professionals that they are and to assist the youngsters in every way possible to succeed,” Waterbury Public Schools Superintendent David L. Snead said Friday, according to the Republican American. “The punishment is the punishment and it’s over. And we are going to treat it like that. It’s over.”
