With the clock ticking down toward the end of the school year, striking Oakland teachers announced they have reached agreement with the district on four common good issues including housing for homeless students and school closures.
During the ongoing contract talks and eight-day strike, both sides have been at loggerheads over whether common goods issues should be included in the deal points of a new work agreement.
With just nine days left in the school year, pressure is mounting on both sides to reach an agreement and return students to the classroom. The first high school graduation is tentatively scheduled for May 22, a week from Monday. "Without final grades, seniors may not be able to fully demonstrate that they qualify for admission, and, in some cases, their college admissions and financial aid could be at risk," she said.
