The strike by Oakland Unified School District teachers will resume Monday, a member of the union bargaining team said Saturday afternoon.
Association union. She is a site-based substitute teacher at Piedmont Avenue Elementary School. She added, "What we really want is to be back in school with our students."
District Superintendent Kyla Johnson-Trammell has said the district's proposal will cost $70 million and little resources are available to address other issues. The offer also cuts the time it takes teachers to reach the top of the pay scale to 20 years from 32 years. "The state government has given the district to use for community schools and we want a say in how that money is used," the bargaining team member said. Teachers will not be in the classroom in Oakland public schools again on Friday as their strike resumes over broken down negotiations.
In an email sent to the community and the media Saturday morning, school district officials said that while compensation has been the district's top priority in negotiations, the union "made it clear" that other contractual items are also important to them, and that officials' proposals address many of these items.
