Seattle Public Schools reaches tentative agreement with teachers' union for return to school

Seattle Public Schools and the Seattle Education Association teachers’ union came to a tentative agreement Tuesday for a safe return to school buildings for preschool and elementary students and staff.

According to the release about the agreement, it “focuses on creating safe learning environments and supports special education inclusion by keeping students with IEPs in class with their general education peers.”

The agreement will be brought to the SEA membership to be ratified and to the SPS Board of Directors next week for approval.

“We look forward to welcoming our students back in larger numbers. I am grateful to our bargaining teams for putting in very long hours to create a plan that will offer more access for our students to return to in-person learning,” Superintendent Denise Juneau said in a written release.
