The San Francisco teachers strike, the city’s first in nearly half a century, is over.
The teachers union and the school district reached a tentative agreement early Friday after an all-night bargaining session. The sides announced the two-year deal near 6 a.m.
Students will be back in classrooms Wednesday. Schools had already closed for Friday, and both Monday and Tuesday of next week are district holidays.
The biggest sticking points were all resolved. The teachers won their marquee ask: fully funded dependent healthcare. For teachers with families, this ameliorates costs that often stretched to perhaps 20 percent of take-home pay, eating up recent wage gains.
