Teachers End Strike in Philadelphia
From Times Wire Reports
A weekend teachers strike ended with a tentative agreement, allowing classes to continue without interruption for more than 210,000 students. Details weren’t released, but a source familiar with the talks said the primary dispute, extending the school day, ended where teachers had drawn the line. They will work 30 minutes more each day, extending their day to seven hours, still below the 7 1/2-hour state average.
