Copy of The Latest Stories For You From Salem Reporter

Good morning, Salem.
Portland teachers are on strike for the first time in district history. While there are no plans now for Salem to follow suit, it’s been a tense year for labor negotiations in the school district and across the Northwest.
Both employee unions for the Salem-Keizer School District are now headed to state mediation, as our story below explains, after months of bargaining have failed to produce a contract. Unions and district leaders remain far apart on both pay and working conditions, particularly around classroom safety and violence from students.
We’ll keep you informed as negotiations unfold. If you have questions or things you’d like us to find out, please reach out to Managing Editor Rachel Alexander, who covers education, at [email protected].
