Tentative deal reached in Seattle teachers strike
Seattle Teachers Strike
Meeka DiLorenzo has a son at a Seattle high school and supports teachers who walked out, but she worries about the toll on students whose first day has been delayed. “I would like to see the district listen to educators about what they need in the classroom - I would like to see mental health supports in place, in the form of counselors, social workers, nurses,” she said.
Teachers in the city have seen healthy raises since their last strike in 2015, with many making more than $100,000, thanks largely to a new state education funding model. The union has said it is primarily focused on winning raises for its lower-paid members, including instructional assistants and front office staff. Paraeducators in Seattle Public Schools start at $19 an hour — nowhere near enough to afford to live in the city, many say.
