Teachers in the Oakland Unified School District on Tuesday voted in favor of a strike as negotiations between the union and the district appear headed toward an impasse.
The Oakland Education Association said 87% of their teachers turned out for the online vote and among those, 87% voted to authorize a strike.
"The Oakland Unified School district's bad faith bargaining has been disrespectful to our educators and to our community," said OEA Interim President Ismael Armendariz. The district has proposed a 22% raise next year, with a one-time $3,000 payment to cover back pay. But union officials say that only applies to tenured teachers and not other staff.
