PPS Strike Preparations

(Portland, OR) -- Negotiations are scheduled to resume today between the Portland Association of Teachers and the Portland Public School district. They have been in talks since the teachers' last contract expired in June, and they're still 60 million dollars apart. Teachers are demanding a pay raise of 21 percent over three years. The district is offering 10-and-a-half percent. The union also wants the district to hire more teachers and reduce class sizes.
