A nearly 13-hour contract negotiation session between representatives from the Waukegan Teachers' Council and the school district ended without an agreement late Tuesday, officials said.
Representatives from the Waukegan Teachers' Council and the town's school district have agreed to meet for a contract negotiation session Tuesday morning.
Representatives from the Waukegan Teachers' Council and the town's school district remain divided over salary issues as the teachers strike enters its tenth day.
Waukegan teachers union officials and school District 60 representatives made progress at a long contract negotiation session Sunday, but the two sides still remain at odds over "salary, benefits and duration," according to the school board.
A negotiation session between Waukegan teachers union officials and school District 60 representatives will be held Monday in an effort to resolve a strike that began last Thursday.
Striking workers at Golan's Moving and Storage in Skokie saw support Friday afternoon from U.S. Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL,9) and Cook County Commissioner Jesus "Chuy" Garcia (7th).
About 90 unionized workers at Golan's have been on strike since July 28 due to sluggish contract talks with their employer. Workers at the Skokie moving company, located at 3600 Jarvis Ave., have been waiting for their first labor contract since winning union representation by Teamsters Local 705 in December.
Schakowsky and Garcia hit the picket lines with the workers Friday, the same day union and company officials met for a contract negotiation session with a federal mediator. The elected officials urged the company to bargain in good faith with the workers.
