PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — Schools in Washington’s La Center School District will be closed Sept. 8 through Sept. 10 as contract negotiations continue.
As KOIN 6 News previously reported, the district previously canceled classes during the week of Sept. 1 while negotiations with the La Center Education Association continued. By the weekend, the parties had not yet reached an agreement.
In an announcement posted to the school’s website on Sept. 6, La Center School District Superintendent Peter Rosenkranz said that if no agreement is reached by Sept. 9, school will be cancelled for the remainder of the week.
The news comes as other districts in Washington are also struggling to develop contracts that satisfy both union staff and district needs.
Educators at Evergreen Public Schools went on strike last week. As of Saturday, the district has not yet announced whether they’ll hold classes on Monday.
