Post Gazette: City, teachers continue contract talks
Negotiators for the Pittsburgh Public Schools and the teachers union met for about three hours yesterday and will meet again Wednesday.
After yesterday’s session, district Chief of Staff Lisa Fischetti said “no conclusions” had been reached. Pittsburgh Federation of Teachers President John Tarka said he wasn’t able to give details.
The union represents about 3,500 teachers and other employees in three bargaining units. The workers have been without contracts since June 30 and have authorized a strike, if necessary.
