Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court February 28, 2003 (School Committee v. United Educators)

Marshall, C.J.

We are asked to determine whether, in the wake of the Education Reform Act of 1993, St. 1993, c. 71 (Reform Act), the involuntary transfer of a special education teacher from one school to another is a matter that is properly arbitrable under a collective bargaining agreement between a school committee and a union representing the teacher.
