More than 300 employees laid off by the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) are going back to work. The California School Employees Association (CSEA), which represents the workers, approved the agreement on Tuesday. The deal requires CSEA employees to take four furlough days between January and June of next year. A press release detailed that the district will restore $8 million worth of 2011-12 CSEA-funded positions. The LAUSD Board of Education approved the agreement unanimously and without comment at its October 25 meeting. "This agreement returns vital staff to many of our campuses." said Superintendent John Deasy in a press release statement. (more...)
