☆ Portland Teachers' Union Reaches Tentative Deal to End Strike
  + stars: | 2023-11-27 | by ( Nov. | At A.M. | ) www.usnews.com   time to read: +1 min
(Reuters) - The union representing public school teachers in Portland, Oregon, reached a tentative deal with the public school district on Sunday, ending a nearly one-month-long strike that had forced scores of schools to close and kept students out of class. After months of negotiations, "we have tentatively agreed to a contract with the Portland Association of Teachers (PAT)," the Portland Public Schools District said in a post on Facebook. Prior to launching the strike on Nov. 1, the union had requested a 23% cost-of-living increase over the next three years, but the district countered with a 10.9% hike instead. The union members will need to ratify the terms, and the school board will also need to approve the full contract, which is expected in a Tuesday meeting, the school district said on Sunday. The students are expected to return on Monday and the school will start two hours late, it added.

☆ Schools in Portland, Oregon, Reach Tentative Deal With Teachers Union After Nearly Month-Long Strike

Portland Public Schools students missed 11 days of school before the district began its weeklong Thanksgiving break. “This contract is a watershed moment for Portland students, families, and educators” said Portland Teachers Association President Angela Bonilla. The Portland Association of Teachers, which represents more than 4,000 educators, said it was the first teachers strike in the school district. Portland Public Schools repeatedly said it didn’t have the money to meet the union’s demands. Oregon lawmakers approved in June a record $10.2 billion K-12 budget for the next two years, but school district representatives said that wasn’t enough.

The average salary for a Portland teacher is $87,000, according to Portland Public Schools, slightly above the area median income for a single person and below the median for a family of four. Portland Public Schools has offered raises of 4.5 percent for the first year, and 3 percent in subsequent years of the contract. The strike in Portland may set the tone for other districts in Oregon that are also struggling to finalize new labor agreements. The union has encouraged parents to make plans for child care while 81 schools in the district are closed. Portland Public Schools is making meals available for pick up at certain schools.
