LAUSD and Teachers Union Reach Tentative Labor Agreement with Salary Increase and Class Size Reduction.
The Los Angeles Unified School District and United Teachers Los Angeles have reached a tentative agreement that includes a 21% salary increase for all UTLA members, reductions on class sizes, and increasing mental health and counseling services. The strike involving UTLA and the union representing bus drivers, custodians, and teaching assistants shut down L.A. public schools for three days. The agreement still needs to be ratified by UTLA bargaining unit members and the Los Angeles Unified Board of Education.
