Los Angeles Charter School Teachers Join Strike

The public school strike in southern California continues, as tens of thousands of teachers from the Los Angeles Unified School District have walked out. What surprised many was the presence of charter school educators on the picket lines.

Teachers from the Accelerated Schools charter network were involved, making it the first strike by charter teachers in California.
