SFUSD unions say they will return to in-person teaching when The City is in the red tier

San Francisco Unified School District unions on Friday presented a bargaining proposal that would return teachers and school staff to in-person teaching when The City moves into the red tier only if all school employees have access to vaccinations, protective gear and other safety precautions.

The proposal, presented today by a coalition of teacher and staff unions, was presented to the district yesterday and will be discussed in a bargaining session scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. Friday, according to Susan Solomon, president of the United Educators of San Francisco.

School employees would return to work when The City is in the orange tier under this proposal even if vaccinations are not available to them, as long as safety precautions such as ventilation, social distancing, protective gear, testing and contact tracing are in place, Solomon said.

“We all need to be working together on this, unions, the school district and The City,” Solomon said.
