Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto Carvalho remains hopeful the district can avoid a three-day strike planned for next week and is calling for the union to return to the bargaining table.
The union, which represents some 30,000 bus drivers, cafeteria workers and other employees, plans a three-day strike starting Tuesday, saying more than a year of talks with the district have not been fruitful. Carvalho said the district has made "powerful proposals" with compensation levels that exceed state and local averages, plus improved hours and benefits.
