Nearly 50,000 San Francisco Unified School District students returned to classrooms Wednesday after a nearly five-day teachers' strike ended. Monday and Tuesday had been previously scheduled holidays, making Wednesday the first instructional day back. Visitacion Valley Elementary experienced joyful reunions, with Principal Sarah Seaton welcoming students and noting strong community partner support.

United Educators of San Francisco called the deal the one they fought for. SFUSD will use part of its reserves, and the agreement remains tentative pending additional steps.
