Parents still fight for UMass Boston day-care center as teachers receive layoff notices - Kiana Cole, Boston Globe

Parents are pressing forward to try to save a UMass Boston-subsidized day-care center — now with support from some state and city representatives — after teachers received official layoff notices last week. At a meeting Wednesday, 25 parents, government officials, and a union leader gathered at a UMass Boston facility in Dorchester to explore ways to keep the Early Learning Center going, though the university remains firm in its decision to close the center on Dec. 29. https://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2017/08/18/parents-still-fight-for-umass-boston-day-care-center-teachers-receive-layoff-notices/QmfZrl1LPX5gpZ2RNwdeJI/story.html
