Los Angeles Unified School District administrators and United Teachers Los Angeles ratified their respective new labor contracts with the district, their unions announced.
Saturday, April 25, 2026 6:47PMLos Angeles Unified School District administrators and United Teachers Los Angeles overwhelmingly ratified their respective new labor contracts with the district, their unions announced Friday.
According to Associated Administrators of Los Angeles/Teamsters Local 2010, which represents about 3,000 LAUSD administrators, roughly 96% of its members voted in favor of the labor pact. Union officials said the contract includes a 12.15% wage increase over two years, "along with landmark workload protections, including a defined 8-hour workday, a reasonable 40-hour workweek, and flex time with notice and no pre-approval.
" The raises will be paid with 2% retroactive to July 1, 2025, 2% retroactive to Jan. 1 of this year, 4% effective July 1 and 3.65% effective Jan. 1, 2027. It also includes "longevity bonuses" and an annual $5,000 stipend for principals assigned to priority schools and single-administrator schools of 275 or more students.
"This contract, and the gains won across the LAUSD workforce, are the result of our members standing together and exercising their collective power," Maria Nichols, president of AALA/Teamsters Local 2010, said in a statement. "Administrators made it clear we would not be used to hold the system together while our brothers and sisters fought for basic respect. We stood shoulder to shoulder with our union siblings, and that unity forced LAUSD to deliver real change.
This victory belongs to the members who organized, took action, and refused to settle for less.
" Members of United Teachers Los Angeles also ratified an agreement with the district. Results of ratification votes are still pending for Service Employees International Union Local 99, representing about 30,000 bus drivers, custodians, cafeteria workers and special education assistants. The district reached an 11th-hour tentative agreement with SEIU earlier this month on the eve of a planned strike that would have involved all three units and forced a closure of district campuses.
