Charter school teachers, City Colleges staff threaten to strike

The planned strike by the charter school teachers would be the first multi-employer charter strike in U.S. history. The potential strike would follow on the heels of another historical strike when 530 teachers at Acero Charter Schools, backed by the CTU, negotiated a contract after carrying out a four-day strike in December 2018, becoming the country’s first charter school to organize a work stoppage.
