SFUSD teachers’ union says it will strike Monday unless last-minute deal reached

ABOUT 6,500 San Francisco Unified School District teachers and staff will stage their first strike in over 45 years on Monday if a late agreement can’t be reached with the district on a new contract. 

United Educators of San Francisco president Cassondra Curiel said at a press conference at SFUSD’s headquarters building on Franklin Street on Thursday morning that union leadership was announcing plans for the strike to give parents and students time to prepare.
