Seneca Valley Board Rejects Teachers' Proposal

CRANBERRY TWP. (KDKA) ― The strike in the Seneca Valley district will continue as the school board has voted to reject the latest proposal from the teachers.

After six hours of negotiations, both sides reached tentative agreements on four minor economic issues.  But salary and benefits remained a problem.

The school board says it just learned today that they are facing a 12 percent hike in health care costs for the coming year, adding up to more than $900,000.

By law, the teachers must return to class on November 15.

Stay with KDKA for the latest developments.
