Ending a long, bitter contract battle, city teachers voted by less than a 2-to-1 ratio yesterday to approve a deal that gives them 15% raises in exchange for surrendering a slew of work rights.
New York Post: UTF’s deal is done
After working nearly 2 1/2 years under an expired contract, city public-school teachers have approved a 52-month deal with the city that calls for a 15 percent raise in exchange for a longer school day and fewer perks. The United Federation of Teachers, which declared a tentative settlement last month with Mayor Bloomberg, announced yesterday that 63 percent of 86,617 votes cast were in favor of the pact.
