Educators from four Los Angeles charter schools walked off the job Thursday for a one-day strike, hoping to force recognition of their attempts to form a teachers union.
: UTLA did represent employees at five Alliance schools , a majority of the board ruled, which could’ve cleared the way for contract talks to begin.
But where Alliance administrators once argued its campuses were autonomous, they now contend that each school in the network is largely dependent on their central office. That would mean that if teachers wanted to unionize, they would have to organize across all two-dozen campuses, rather than individual campuses.
The charter network is now appealing the labor board’s ruling to the courts — and in the meantime, has not met to open contract talks with Alliance Educators United. “For two years, UTLA has known that Alliance intends to appeal to the California State of Appeals regarding the ruling that UTLA can bargain contracts at individual Alliance schools,” said Xavier Vargas, Alliance’s vice president of strategic initiatives and communication, in an email to LAist. “[UTLA continues] to use our legal right to appeal as an organizing tool to strike at four Alliance schools.
Vargas added that negotiating and administering multiple union contacts with UTLA"would create additional bureaucracy and burden on Alliance schools.”
