Teachers in the West Contra Costa Unified School District in California ended a four-day walkout after reaching a tentative agreement that includes an 8% salary increase and fully employer-paid family health benefits by mid-2027. The deal also provides additional support for international teachers, and classes are expected to resume normal operations pending final approvals.
