Kent School District teacher strike persists into Monday
Negotiations continue between the Kent School District and the teachers union.
Both parties met Sunday morning to continue talks about coming to a deal, according to a spokesperson with the Washington Education Association.
On Saturday, the district posted its latest salary proposal that would increase first-year teachers鈥� salaries by more than 6%.
The Kent Education Association responded to the district鈥檚 proposal on Facebook, calling it a tactic to break the strike.
成人X站 Newsradio has spoken with several teachers who have been a part of this strike, and they said they will strike for as long as is necessary to successfully bargain for higher wages, smaller class sizes, and better student access to mental health resources.
鈥淲e are just really disappointed to be at this point,鈥� said Alisha Gray who teaches sixth grade at Sunrise Elementary. 鈥淭he district鈥檚 anti-teacher proposals have thrown the entire community into unnecessary upheaval. I hope that we can get a fair deal as quickly as possible and go back to educating our kids.鈥�
The teachers鈥� strike has delayed the start of the school year, and officials with the district told 成人X站 7 there will be no classes Monday because of it.
According to the Seattle Times, the Kent School District is one of the largest in our region, with roughly 25,000 students enrolled.
