Old Forge, Lackawanna County - Classes will resume in the Old Forge School District on Wednesday. The School District released a statement Saturday, saying the Old Forge Education Association agreed to return to work. Student like Jonathan Odell say they just want this labor dispute to end once and for all, "You learn stuff before they go on strike, when you come back you have to re-learn it again because you kind of forget it over the strike time." District officials say they are still waiting for the teachers union to respond to their last best officer which expires on Thursday, December 3.
