Dublin Unified Teachers End Strike After Tentative Deal Reached with District

The contract includes a 2.3% salary increase retroactive to July 2025 and reduces class sizes and special-education caseloads, pending ratification and school board approval.

  • On Thursday night, the Dublin Unified School District and the Dublin Teachers Association reached a tentative agreement to end a four-day strike, the union announced late Thursday.
  • Teachers walked off the job on Monday, March 9 after months of stalled contract talks over pay, class sizes and health care benefits, while the district said it faces an $8.4 million deficit and needs $8.6 million in ongoing cuts.
  • The tentative three-year contract includes a 2.3% ongoing pay increase effective July 1, 2025, with Kaiser single premium contributions rising to 85% July 1, 2026; 90% Jan. 1, 2027; and 100% Jan. 1, 2028.
  • The deal must still be ratified by Dublin Teachers Association members and approved by the DUSD Board of Trustees before teachers return Monday, with attendance dropping to about 21% of 12,800 students during the strike.
  • Union leaders hailed the pact as preventing a pay cut this year while acknowledging it fell short of their original demand, as Matt Campbell, assistant superintendent of educational services, prepares to lead amid potential cuts and layoffs.
