LAUSD and teachers union reach tentative agreement days before threatened strike

The tentative two-year agreement with the United Teachers Los Angeles would increase “salary scales by 11.65%” and raise the beginning teacher salary from about $68,000 to $77,000 per year.

“We will continue to meet with our remaining labor partners throughout the weekend with the intent to reach additional agreements that would allow us to keep schools open on Tuesday, April 14,” the district announcement stated.

The brief district alert also noted: “Additional details on the 2025-2027 Collective Bargaining Agreement between Los Angeles Unified and UTLA will be provided as they become available.”

To avert a strike, agreements also must be reached with Local 99 of Service Employees International Union and Associated Administrators of Los Angeles.

This is a developing story and will be updated.
