Lorain teachers propose withdrawing demands for salary increases if the board rescinds its firing of 98 teachers and six nurses. The LEA still wants a staff reduction policy discussion the district won’t negotiate. A counter-proposal is due at tomorrow’s 4 pm session as the three day strike continues with about 4 percent honoring picket lines.
The district weighs raising the base pay from 8450 to 10420 with board concessions in exchange for salary index adjustments.
