Teacher Strikes in Massachusetts and Oregon Escalate
Teachers' unions in the North Shore communities of Gloucester, Marblehead, and Beverly are on strike, demanding higher wages, improved parental and sick leave, and safer classroom environments. The strikes have resulted in school closures and fines, with Gloucester and Beverly unions ordered to pay $50,000, increasing daily if they remain out. The school committees argue that the unions' demands exceed budget capacities, while unions claim committees are stalling negotiations. Meanwhile, teachers in the Greater Albany Public School District are also striking for the first time in nearly 40 years over pay and resource funding, impacting school operations and prompting meal provisions for students. Albany educators have not reached an agreement after nine months of negotiations, making them the lowest-paid in Oregon among comparable districts. Both strikes highlight a broader trend of educators seeking better working conditions and compensation.
