NORWICH, Conn. (WTNH) — Several Norwich teachers reached out to state legislators seeking change. '96 percent of the teachers feel are afraid to speak for fear of retaliation,' said Kate Dias, the president of the Connecticut Education Association. She is referring to a recent survey and says she is speaking on behalf of Norwich teachers because they are afraid to do so themselves. 'A good chunk of our teachers in Norwich talked with their feet. They got up and they left the district in record numbers,' said Dias.
