April 14 (UPI) -- Los Angeles schools will not close for a strike after the district reached a deal with the third and final union Monday evening.
Hours before the 2 a.m. PDT strike deadline, the district announced it had struck a deal with the Service Employees International Union Local 99, which represents 30,000 custodians, food workers, special education assistants and bus drivers.
LAUSD announced on its website that schools would be open Tuesday.
"We are proud to have reached resolution with all of our labor partners, UTLA, SEIU, and AALA Teamsters Local 2010, ensuring stability for our schools and continuity for the students and families we serve," Acting Superintendent Andrés E. Chait said.
