After fighting more than two years to justify its existence, the teachers union at San Diego’s Gompers charter school has reached its first contract agreement with school leadership.
The contract, if formally approved by union membership and the Gompers school board, would give a 4 percent raise to Gompers teachers making $100,000 or less annually, as well as a $2,000 bonus to all educators.
The contract also would continue to require teachers to provide summer school and tutoring for students.
“I am personally feeling very grateful that we have finally reached a contract,” said Vallery Campos, a seventh-grade English teacher at Gompers who helped organize the teachers union. “This contract is going to really help us to attract and retain teachers, and that’s going to be super critical for ensuring that students continue to attain and reach all of their goals.”
