Bargaining Update Compares Benefits

The Long Beach Unified School District and the Teachers Association of Long Beach attended a Fact Finding Hearing on August 29, 2012 in an attempt to come to an agreement regarding the four open items in negotiations: health benefits, Head Start, shared decision making, and adjunct duties. The parties are anticipating the Fact Finding Panel’s report within the next 30 days.
