Stand up, fight back.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/lilyjamali/status/1098597022737854469\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Keith Brown, president of the Oakland Education Association, which represents some 3,000 teachers, counselors and nurses, joined Thursday morning's picket line at Manzanita.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Today is a historic day in Oakland where teachers united with parents, students, are on strike at 86 school sites, and we are demanding a living wage to keep teachers in Oakland,\" Brown said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The district's \u003ca href=\"https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6nRexXpGkyKVTZuQnRaWDg5WFUyOV9HQTQ4bTRsQlZFclFz/view\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">most recent offer\u003c/a> would have given teachers a 7 percent across-the-board raise over three years, plus a retroactive 1.5 percent bonus. While a bump from the 5 percent raise over three years the district had previously put on the table, it still fell short of the 12 percent the union wants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The proposal still does not address essential needs of our students,” Brown said, adding that it also failed to address the high cost of living in the Bay Area. He said negotiations with the district would resume Friday morning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Low pay and difficult working conditions, he added, have led to a noticeably high rate of teacher turnover in the district, with roughly 300 teachers leaving annually, many going to neighboring districts with higher salaries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland Unified teachers are among the lowest paid in the Bay Area and have been working without a contract since July 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside hero=\" https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/RS35214_OUSD_MOORE_025-qut.jpg\" label=\"Oakland Schools: Put to the Test\" link1=\"https://www.kqed.org/oaklandschools,Follow our coverage of the strikes, closures, and more.\" link2=\"https://www.kqed.org/oaklandschools#have-a-question,We want to hear from you. What stories should we cover?\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gesine Cotteral, a teacher at Lincoln Elementary School near Lake Merritt, has worked in the district for 25 years and echoed those concerns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are here because of a massive exodus of teachers leaving schools who can’t afford to live in Oakland,\" said Cotteral, while picketing outside her school. \"We had four teachers leave last year ... and then students need support staff, special ed teachers and nurses.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Luz Chavez, who teaches at Manzanita, said the strike is not just a fight for better pay, but also better classroom conditions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're not out here for the money,\" Chavez said. \"We're out here for our kids, and we've told them that multiple times as we've been talking about the strike with them throughout this week.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The district said it is keeping all schools open for the duration of the strike and encouraging students to attend. Schools are being staffed by principals, central office staff and temporary substitute teachers. But it will definitely not be business as usual, said OUSD spokesman John Sasaki, noting that the vast majority of the district's more than 36,200 students had not come to school on Thursday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It's a very powerful effect sent by the union and by the supporters among the families,\" said Sasaki, who counted 14 students in attendance at Manzanita this morning, out of the roughly 400 kids enrolled there. \"Oakland is a union town and our families and our students support our teachers and support the union effort. And we do, too. That being said, we certainly want our students in class and hope that more come to school tomorrow.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/lilyjamali/status/1098613885832056832\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The district receives state funding based on daily student attendance, and stands to lose a significant amount of money each day if absence rates are high.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sasaki confirmed that talks with the union would resume on Friday morning and that the strike would more than likely last for at least one more day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the late morning, teachers and their supporters, including a number of students, rallied in Frank Ogawa Plaza in downtown Oakland and marched to the district's central office, before returning to school picket lines later in the afternoon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11727903\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003ca

They also pushed for a revision of the state's charter law, which has allowed charter schools to proliferate in Oakland and, they argue, has drained huge amounts of funding — and students — away from the district.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Pretty much every principal is in support of the teachers having higher pay,\" said Cliff Hong, the principal of Roosevelt Middle School.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officials in the financially struggling district, which faces a huge budget shortfall and is looking to cut more than $20 million next year, say they're sympathetic to teachers demands for a raise, but can't swing such a big pay increase. A nearly 45 percent decline in student enrollment over the past 15 years is partly to blame. But union officials argue that fiscal mismanagement has also played a major role in the district's ongoing budgetary woes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An independent fact-finding report, released on Friday, noted that while the district's initial offer of a 5 percent raise over three years wouldn't keep pace with inflation, a 12 percent increase was simply infeasible, given the district's squeezed finances. The union swiftly rejected the report's recommendations, which included a short-term 6 percent raise and continued negotiations next year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For parents who don't want their kids to cross the picket line, the city is offering space, rent-free, in 15 recreation centers across Oakland, as well as in city libraries where students can spend the day. These \"solidarity sites,\" as organizers are calling them, will be supervised by volunteers, with breakfast and lunch provided by the \u003ca href=\"https://donorbox.org/breadfored\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bread for Ed campaign\u003c/a>, an online fundraising effort organized by the OEA and Democratic Socialists of America that has already raised close to $90,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/SherazSadiq1/status/1098642513995284480\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A number of churches throughout the city are also opening their doors to students, including Taylor Memorial United Methodist Church in West Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We put a lot of thought and love into what we’re doing here for the students and the support of our Oakland teachers,” said the Rev. Anthony Jenkins Sr.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland teachers last participated in a sanctioned strike in 2010, which lasted just one day. The previous strike, in 1996, went on for 26 days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The strike is part of a growing wave of teacher activism that began in February 2018, when West Virginia teachers participated in a nine-day strike that drew national attention and was followed by a statewide teachers strike in Oklahoma. In January, Los Angeles teachers went on strike for six days, gaining a 6 percent pay raise and significant class-size reductions. And last week, teachers in Denver ended a three-day walkout after reaching a tentative deal that included a pay increase.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED's Lily Jamali, Vanessa Rancaño, Julia McEvoy, Stephanie Lister and Sheraz Sadiq contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

A nearly 45 percent decline in student enrollment over the past 15 years is partly to blame. But union officials argue that fiscal mismanagement has also played a major role in the district's ongoing budgetary woes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An independent fact-finding report, released on Friday, noted that while the district's initial offer of a 5 percent raise over three years wouldn't keep pace with inflation, a 12 percent increase was simply infeasible, given the district's squeezed finances. The union swiftly rejected the report's recommendations, which included a short-term 6 percent raise and continued negotiations next year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For parents who don't want their kids to cross the picket line, the city is offering space, rent-free, in 15 recreation centers across Oakland, as well as in city libraries where students can spend the day.

"content": "\u003cp>Finding housing was one of the first challenges Alyssa Mathiowetz faced as a new graduate student at UC Berkeley. She landed a room in a shared house near campus, but it came with a steep price tag: $1,500 a month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s definitely on the expensive side,” said the Ph.D. student in metabolic biology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mathiowetz’s rent could soon decrease, however, thanks to a new home-sharing program that matches graduate students looking for housing with retirees who have extra space in their homes. Its organizers hope the program will prove successful enough to export to other University of California campuses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>College students have been \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/articles/homeless-college-students-california/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">hit hard\u003c/a> by California’s housing crisis, struggling to find affordable digs near campuses that in many cases are located in the state’s priciest markets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The median apartment rent in Berkeley tops $3,500 per month, according to real estate website Zillow. On-campus housing is scarce, and 10 percent of students in a \u003ca href=\"https://housing.berkeley.edu/sites/default/files/pdf/HousingSurvey_03022018.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">recent survey\u003c/a> reported being homeless at some point in their college careers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, along the city’s idyllic, tree-lined streets, aging homeowners who bought in decades ago have stayed put as property values rose around them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Staff at Berkeley’s Retirement Center started strategizing last year about how to bring the two groups together. They won a grant from the chancellor’s office for a \u003ca href=\"https://retirement.berkeley.edu/berkeley-home-match\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">pilot program\u003c/a> that will match six students with senior hosts for the spring semester.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People want to continue living in their homes, and people are living longer and retiring later,” said Andy Gaines, the executive director of Ashby Village, a nonprofit serving senior citizens that’s partnering with UC Berkeley on the project. “And oftentimes as people retire from the workforce and their friends and family die or move away, they are left more isolated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sharing their homes with students can provide seniors with a sense of community, Gaines said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Students will pay below-market rent — less than $1,000 per month — or bedrooms inside the homes of retired university faculty and staff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That sounds like a bargain to Mathiowetz, who attended a recent information session. She saw other potential benefits, too. “It’d be great to get to learn more about the university and what it was like back then when they were working,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the meeting, graduate student Rachel Bell coached interested students on writing enticing but honest bios outlining their interests and lifestyle. If you have a pet, Bell urged the students, mention it up front. Don’t wait for it to come up later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those profiles are passed on to homeowners, who — after both parties pass background checks — go on “dates” with prospective housemates until a match is found. Both parties then sign a “Living Together Agreement” detailing everything from acceptable TV-watching hours to who cleans the bathroom. The goal is to have participants living together by early February, said Retirement Center Director Cary Sweeney.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11674216\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/COLLEGE-COSTS-Photo-1-1024x640-800x500.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11674216\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/COLLEGE-COSTS-Photo-1-1024x640-800x500.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/COLLEGE-COSTS-Photo-1-1024x640-160x100.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/COLLEGE-COSTS-Photo-1-1024x640-1020x638.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/COLLEGE-COSTS-Photo-1-1024x640-960x600.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/COLLEGE-COSTS-Photo-1-1024x640-240x150.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/COLLEGE-COSTS-Photo-1-1024x640-375x234.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/COLLEGE-COSTS-Photo-1-1024x640-520x325.jpg 520w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/COLLEGE-COSTS-Photo-1-1024x640.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Students entering the UC Berkeley campus via Sather Gate. Berkeley students often struggle to find housing in one of the state’s most expensive markets. \u003ccite>(Wikimedia Commons)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>While students can help their hosts with other household tasks, it’s not required.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The intention is it’s about building a relationship, and the support grows out naturally from that relationship,” Sweeney said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Interest in intergenerational living is percolating on a number of campuses nationwide. At rural Humboldt State, thriving cannabis and vacation rental industries have put pressure on already limited housing stock. Campus staff have collaborated with a local senior agency to host community events where seniors and students sign up for the online platform Silvernest, which connects potential housemates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Students at New York University can dodge the Big Apple’s famous broker fees by applying to share apartments with seniors through the New York Foundation for Senior Citizens. Only four pairs of housemates have been matched so far, but Emily Gadd, who helps coordinate the program for NYU, says she expects interest to grow.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our guess is that in five years this is going to be something happening all over the country,” Gadd said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of Anirban Karak’s friends were surprised to learn that his housemate was nearly 80, reports the Ph.D. student at NYU. But adjusting to each other was “smoother than I expected,” Karak said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two shared a three-bedroom apartment in Queens for a semester and would have lunch or go shopping together several times per month. Karak, who is studying South Asian history, had a long research trip planned and was relieved not to have to set up a household by himself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His housemate, who had also studied history before going into publishing “was quite well traveled, and had been to parts of Africa and China,” Karak said. “There was a lot that we could talk about.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, for some older homeowners, inviting someone new into their space might be a hard sell.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Edward Vine, a former scientist at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, and his wife have been hosting her 19-year-old cousin in their Mediterranean-style home in the Berkeley hills. Her room has a separate entrance, and Vine says overall he’s enjoyed helping her as she figures out her next steps in life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there are a few challenges, such as when Vine — who made a career studying energy efficiency — hears his house guest taking extra-long showers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We can hear the shower in the whole house, and it’s like, how long should the shower be on?” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So when an email dropped into his inbox asking him if he wanted to participate in Berkeley’s home-sharing program, it gave him pause. His three sons are grown, and once his wife’s cousin moves out, he expects they’ll go back to being empty nesters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve gotten used to having nobody besides ourselves, and we like it,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Playing matchmaker between students and seniors can also be labor intensive, which might be why existing programs tend to be small.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s been lots of excitement, but sometimes that doesn’t turn into reality,” said Dan Birmingham, a former program manager at the Area 1 Agency on Aging who organized the Humboldt workshops.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To make the Berkeley program more attractive to homeowners, organizers chose to focus on graduate students, with their reputation for being more responsible and studious than undergrads.

She landed a room in a shared house near campus, but it came with a steep price tag: $1,500 a month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s definitely on the expensive side,” said the Ph.D. student in metabolic biology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mathiowetz’s rent could soon decrease, however, thanks to a new home-sharing program that matches graduate students looking for housing with retirees who have extra space in their homes. Its organizers hope the program will prove successful enough to export to other University of California campuses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>College students have been \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/articles/homeless-college-students-california/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">hit hard\u003c/a> by California’s housing crisis, struggling to find affordable digs near campuses that in many cases are located in the state’s priciest markets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The median apartment rent in Berkeley tops $3,500 per month, according to real estate website Zillow. On-campus housing is scarce, and 10 percent of students in a \u003ca href=\"https://housing.berkeley.edu/sites/default/files/pdf/HousingSurvey_03022018.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">recent survey\u003c/a> reported being homeless at some point in their college careers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

They won a grant from the chancellor’s office for a \u003ca href=\"https://retirement.berkeley.edu/berkeley-home-match\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">pilot program\u003c/a> that will match six students with senior hosts for the spring semester.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People want to continue living in their homes, and people are living longer and retiring later,” said Andy Gaines, the executive director of Ashby Village, a nonprofit serving senior citizens that’s partnering with UC Berkeley on the project. “And oftentimes as people retire from the workforce and their friends and family die or move away, they are left more isolated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sharing their homes with students can provide seniors with a sense of community, Gaines said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Students will pay below-market rent — less than $1,000 per month — or bedrooms inside the homes of retired university faculty and staff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That sounds like a bargain to Mathiowetz, who attended a recent information session. She saw other potential benefits, too. “It’d be great to get to learn more about the university and what it was like back then when they were working,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the meeting, graduate student Rachel Bell coached interested students on writing enticing but honest bios outlining their interests and lifestyle. If you have a pet, Bell urged the students, mention it up front. Don’t wait for it to come up later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those profiles are passed on to homeowners, who — after both parties pass background checks — go on “dates” with prospective housemates until a match is found. Both parties then sign a “Living Together Agreement” detailing everything from acceptable TV-watching hours to who cleans the bathroom. The goal is to have participants living together by early February, said Retirement Center Director Cary Sweeney.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11674216\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/COLLEGE-COSTS-Photo-1-1024x640-800x500.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11674216\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/COLLEGE-COSTS-Photo-1-1024x640-800x500.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/COLLEGE-COSTS-Photo-1-1024x640-160x100.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/COLLEGE-COSTS-Photo-1-1024x640-1020x638.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/COLLEGE-COSTS-Photo-1-1024x640-960x600.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/COLLEGE-COSTS-Photo-1-1024x640-240x150.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/COLLEGE-COSTS-Photo-1-1024x640-375x234.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/COLLEGE-COSTS-Photo-1-1024x640-520x325.jpg 520w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/COLLEGE-COSTS-Photo-1-1024x640.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Students entering the UC Berkeley campus via Sather Gate.

At rural Humboldt State, thriving cannabis and vacation rental industries have put pressure on already limited housing stock. Campus staff have collaborated with a local senior agency to host community events where seniors and students sign up for the online platform Silvernest, which connects potential housemates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Students at New York University can dodge the Big Apple’s famous broker fees by applying to share apartments with seniors through the New York Foundation for Senior Citizens. Only four pairs of housemates have been matched so far, but Emily Gadd, who helps coordinate the program for NYU, says she expects interest to grow.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our guess is that in five years this is going to be something happening all over the country,” Gadd said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of Anirban Karak’s friends were surprised to learn that his housemate was nearly 80, reports the Ph.D. student at NYU. But adjusting to each other was “smoother than I expected,” Karak said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two shared a three-bedroom apartment in Queens for a semester and would have lunch or go shopping together several times per month. Karak, who is studying South Asian history, had a long research trip planned and was relieved not to have to set up a household by himself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His housemate, who had also studied history before going into publishing “was quite well traveled, and had been to parts of Africa and China,” Karak said. “There was a lot that we could talk about.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, for some older homeowners, inviting someone new into their space might be a hard sell.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Edward Vine, a former scientist at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, and his wife have been hosting her 19-year-old cousin in their Mediterranean-style home in the Berkeley hills. Her room has a separate entrance, and Vine says overall he’s enjoyed helping her as she figures out her next steps in life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there are a few challenges, such as when Vine — who made a career studying energy efficiency — hears his house guest taking extra-long showers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We can hear the shower in the whole house, and it’s like, how long should the shower be on?” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So when an email dropped into his inbox asking him if he wanted to participate in Berkeley’s home-sharing program, it gave him pause. His three sons are grown, and once his wife’s cousin moves out, he expects they’ll go back to being empty nesters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve gotten used to having nobody besides ourselves, and we like it,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Playing matchmaker between students and seniors can also be labor intensive, which might be why existing programs tend to be small.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s been lots of excitement, but sometimes that doesn’t turn into reality,” said Dan Birmingham, a former program manager at the Area 1 Agency on Aging who organized the Humboldt workshops.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To make the Berkeley program more attractive to homeowners, organizers chose to focus on graduate students, with their reputation for being more responsible and studious than undergrads. They figured the 16,000 former university employees the Retirement Center serves would have strong ties to campus and might be willing to serve as hosts. Several thousand of those live within a few miles of campus, Sweeney said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This being a university, organizers will also closely study the pilot’s impact.

Here are some key details to help you prepare.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>How many teachers are going on strike?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The Oakland Education Association, which called the strike, represents about 2,300 classroom teachers.

A student who does not come to school can’t attend an after-school program, it said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>What about school sports teams?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://www.ousd.org/oal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Oakland Athletic League\u003c/a> is canceling some extracurricular sports activities during the strike. Call them with specific questions: 510-879-2846.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Additionally, all middle school sports this weekend are cancelled, according to district spokesman John Sasaki. Spring sports competitions are also postponed. However, winter sports playoffs will continue as planned and school sites will individually determine whether to hold after-school practices. Parents should call their children’s schools for specific information.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>How will temporary teachers be vetted?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The district says it’s reviewing the work references, fingerprints and health clearances for all the temporary teachers it’s hiring to do fill-in work during the strike. These short-term substitutes will get paid $300 a day, according to the district.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Are charter schools affected?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>No, Oakland charter schools are not part of the strike, nor are the teachers who work for them or the nearly 14,000 students who attend them. However, some charter school teachers have joined district teachers on the picket line in previous labor actions in solidarity.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>How much money does OUSD stand to lose if students stay home during the strike?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>On the fourth day of the strike, Oakland Unified spokesman John Sasaki said an average of about 6 percent of all students have attended school during the strike. That massive lack of attendance amounts to roughly $1 million net loss per day for the district, he said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sasaki added: “It is unclear as yet how the loss of any funding because of the strike will affect the overall budget issues. But in a school district with tight financial constraints such as OUSD, any money that’s lost adds to the challenge of balancing the budget.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Will striking teachers get any financial support?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Striking teachers don’t receive any pay from the district (and can’t use sick days), but the union has created a strike fund, and is working with a community bank that will offer low-interest loans to teachers in need. There have also been some fundraising efforts organized by parents as well as teachers from other districts to support Oakland teachers who could experience financial hardship. Among them, \u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/2019/teacher-activism-in-california-takes-on-an-increasingly-red-hue/608745\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the United Teachers of Richmond\u003c/a> has already contributed $1,000 to Oakland’s Bread for ED fund.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>How can I find out more or get involved in organizing efforts?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>There are multiple strategy sessions for parents and community members being held this week, including one planned for \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/events/617507362021956/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tuesday\u003c/a> and another on \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/events/588845998255191/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Friday\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Additionally, check out OUSD’s FAQ \u003ca href=\"https://docs.google.com/document/d/132NEBoTH02msc_fGSRvOft66jsoGs3Cg80bYIaIGxj4/edit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here\u003c/a> and OEA’s FAQ for families \u003ca href=\"https://oaklandea.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Potential-Oakland-Teacher-Strike-Family-FAQ-ENG.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Parents should call their children’s schools for specific information.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>How will temporary teachers be vetted?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The district says it’s reviewing the work references, fingerprints and health clearances for all the temporary teachers it’s hiring to do fill-in work during the strike. These short-term substitutes will get paid $300 a day, according to the district.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Are charter schools affected?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>No, Oakland charter schools are not part of the strike, nor are the teachers who work for them or the nearly 14,000 students who attend them. However, some charter school teachers have joined district teachers on the picket line in previous labor actions in solidarity.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>How much money does OUSD stand to lose if students stay home during the strike?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>On the fourth day of the strike, Oakland Unified spokesman John Sasaki said an average of about 6 percent of all students have attended school during the strike. That massive lack of attendance amounts to roughly $1 million net loss per day for the district, he said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sasaki added: “It is unclear as yet how the loss of any funding because of the strike will affect the overall budget issues. But in a school district with tight financial constraints such as OUSD, any money that’s lost adds to the challenge of balancing the budget.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Will striking teachers get any financial support?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Striking teachers don’t receive any pay from the district (and can’t use sick days), but the union has created a strike fund, and is working with a community bank that will offer low-interest loans to teachers in need. There have also been some fundraising efforts organized by parents as well as teachers from other districts to support Oakland teachers who could experience financial hardship. Among them, \u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/2019/teacher-activism-in-california-takes-on-an-increasingly-red-hue/608745\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the United Teachers of Richmond\u003c/a> has already contributed $1,000 to Oakland’s Bread for ED fund.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>How can I find out more or get involved in organizing efforts?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>There are multiple strategy sessions for parents and community members being held this week, including one planned for \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/events/617507362021956/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tuesday\u003c/a> and another on \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/events/588845998255191/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Friday\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
