In the event that San Francisco public school teachers walk off the job on Monday, principals and administrators announced today that they will strike in solidarity. ⁠

In addition to principals and administrators, the clerks and custodians represented by the SEIU 1021 union have also authorized a sympathy strike.⁠

Superintendent Maria Su today announced that in the event of a strike on Monday, all school sites will close. ⁠

An SFUSD communique said that, on Thursday evening, the district’s bargaining team offered two options for health benefits, neither of which are fully funded, in addition to an offer of a six percent raise over the course of three years. The union refused this offer. ⁠
