""Right now, OUSD educators are the lowest paid in the region, and as a result, the District loses nearly 400 hardworking, dedicated educators per year, costing the district $7.5 million annually," said Kampala Taiz-Rancifer, president of the Oakland Education Association. "This is a waste of resources, destabilizes classrooms, and especially hurts our most vulnerable students. Oakland educators have been in this fight for the schools our students deserve for a long time-and we remain committed to stabilizing our schools.""
"On Friday, members of the Oakland teachers' union voted to authorize a potential strike. The union said members are advocating for a fair contract that "ensures the safe, stable, racially-just schools Oakland students deserve."

Members of the Oakland teachers' union voted to authorize a potential strike to press for a fair contract that ensures safe, stable, racially-just schools. OUSD educators rank among the lowest paid in the region, producing nearly 400 educator departures per year and costing the district $7.5 million annually. High turnover destabilizes classrooms and disproportionately harms the most vulnerable students. The strike vote follows nearly 12 months of bargaining with the district holding at a 0% wage increase. More information is expected at a press conference on Saturday at 1 p.m. The association previously held a strike in 2023.
