The Oakland teachers strike is still on for Friday, after the State Superintendent offered to mediate negotiations.
. Thus far, neither the Oakland Educators Association nor Oakland Unified School District has publicly agreed to the mediation.
The teachers union, which is urging the district to raise teachers’ pay and provide better resources for students, is set to return to the picket lines at 7:30 a.m. at each of the more than 80 schools in the district. The union announced a rally set for 12:30 p.m. Friday at United For Success Academy at 2101 35th Avenue.
“We want to continue negotiating. We don’t want a strike,” Hutchinson said. “But left the table and they’ve broken off discussions — not us.”
