Title-Teachers rally outside Columbus City Schools board meeting as strike looms

snip-"The "practice picketing" took place after union leaders and district officials earlier met for several hours with a federal mediator Tuesday. While a CEA spokeswoman said there was movement on two issues, the two sides failed to reach agreement on a new contract with the scheduled start of the school year on Aug. 24.
CEA and the board are scheduled to meet again Thursday as the board had requested two meetings this week in an effort to reach a settlement."

snip-" CEA — the 4,000-member union that represents Columbus City Schools teachers and other employees — said the union and the school board were able to reach agreement on two outstanding issues, but CEA spokesperson Regina Fuentes said she didn’t know what those two issues were.
“We are still very far apart on a lot of things,” Fuentes said. “One of those things is being accountable when it comes to HVAC and fixing our schools and providing resources. We want language in the contract that speaks to the district coming through on their promises.”
