After 7 days of striking, Oakland educators say they received an agreement to sign from the district late Sunday night and would review it.
Oakland teachers on the OEA bargaining team tell NBC Bay Area that dozens of them slept inside the union building Saturday night, thinking they may be approaching the home stretch of these negotiations that have been months in the making.
This weekend, the union said it made major progress in negotiations, coming to an agreement on the"common good' items which have been a sticking point for teachers. Those"common good" items include a variety of things like resources for unhoused students, reparations for Black students, and efforts to bring shared governance to Community Schools.
