LAUSD strike risk persists as Local 99 stalls after tentative deals

TL;DR Summary
Two LAUSD unions reached tentative deals Sunday, but Local 99 remains at the bargaining table, keeping the April 14 strike option alive that could close schools for 390,000 students and 70,000 workers. Mayor Bass is mediating and the city has prepared safe programming in case of a shutdown. Local 99 plans morning pickets and post‑rally food distribution while pushing for higher pay and stable hours, whereas UTLA and AALA secured raises and governance protections. If Local 99 settles, the district could avert a broader walkout, but families must still prepare for possible closures, childcare gaps, and disruption to IEP meetings.
