11. I'm curious: most RC parochial schools USED to have teachers unions.

They weren't very strong; but they DID have unions.

Is this the case in SF? Also... are the teachers compensated on a salary-step structure-type model?

In other words... incremental raises pegged to experience and degrees earned, etc.?
