The Oakland Education Association announced early Monday morning that teachers have a tentative agreement with the Oakland Unified School District.
The teachers union said that schools are opening on Monday for students, with instruction resuming on Tuesday. Teachers have been on strike for eight days.
Vice president Kampala Taiz-Rancifer added that the union "won our ‘Common Goods’ goals," especially more resources for "Black-thriving" schools." The teachers also said there was tentative agreement on creating a Black student reparations task force, comprised of parents, students, educations and classified staff, when possible, from historically Black schools.
Other items in the new contract include the hiring of more teacher librarians, counselors and school nurses.
