The Oakland teachers strike is over; school to resume to instruction Tuesday
After days of ramped-up talks and momentum rapidly building, the Oakland Education Association and Oakland Unified School District announced early Monday morning that they reached a tentative agreement on a new contract, ending the seven-day long strike in time for the final eight days of the school year.
School was set to resume instruction as normal on Tuesday, with schools open Monday in a modified “transition day” format. The district says teachers may return to class Monday if they wish to do so. “Our collective power forced OUSD to commit to living wages for educators, more resources in our schools, enforceable working conditions & common good issues for our students & their families,” the union said on Twitter on Monday morning.
