by workers in the Los Angeles Unified School District was scheduled to wrap up Thursday, but it wasn't immediately clear if any progress was made in negotiations for higher pay for teachers' aides, bus drivers, custodians and other support staff in the nation's second-largest school system.
“Education workers have always been eager to negotiate as long as we are treated with respect and bargained with fairly, and with the mayor’s leadership we believe that is possible,” Arias said. “We’re hoping just to bring awareness and let the superintendent know that we’re here to make a difference," Munoz said Thursday at a rally marking the strike's final day.
The union has said employees, including special education assistants, cafeteria workers and gardeners, would return to work on Friday.who serve as the backbone of schools across the country. “LAUSD could be the canary in the coalmine when you look at the potential for difficult labor negotiations in school districts across California,” he said.
