Capistrano teachers to continue strike
Los Angeles Daily News
Striking teachers in the Capistrano Unified School District will be back on the picket line today, as talks between the teachers and the district ended last night without a resolution, a union spokesman said. Talks are set to resume at 11 a.m., but the teachers plan to continue their strike until a resolution is reached, said Bill Guy of the California Teachers Association. The teachers want a commitment from the school board that a 10.1 percent pay cut imposed by the board will be temporary. About 90 percent of the district's 2,200 teachers went on strike Thursday, picketing all 56 schools. (more...)
