According to a tentative agreement reached Wednesday between Los Angeles Unified and the teachers’ union, teachers in the Los Angeles school district would receive a 5% raise and incentives.

The proposed union contract would include updated pandemic-related safety protocols, such as the frequency of coronavirus testing among teachers and staff, and union approval of a district policy that allows kids in quarantine to attend live instruction.

Starting on September 30, union members will vote on the agreement. The pact must also be authorised by the nation’s second-largest school district’s Board of Education. The approval of the board is expected.
