Hundreds of strike signs are ready to go on the picket lines as Oakland Unified notified parents that teachers will go ahead with their planned strike. Many parents say they stand with educators and support their strike.

"If you have a salary dispute, dispute that on the side but do your contract," said parent of three Reginald Mosley.

"If we were talking about months-long or extended periods, I think that is concerning however I think a couple of days is something that we can figure out as a community," said Smith. While we do not know how long the strike will last, we continue to bargain with OEA in an effort to reach an agreement. The end of the school year is always filled with milestone events for our students, so we want to ensure regular school resumes as soon as possible.

Central office staff have been assigned to serve at schools to ensure students are safe. Please be aware of communication coming from your school and principal this evening and tomorrow, as they will be providing specific site instructions.
