Minneapolis students to return to class Tuesday after strike

• District officials postponed the return by a day to give teachers and school administrators time to prepare.

Why it matters: The strike had kept tens of thousands of students home from school since March 8.

Details: The agreement, reached at about 4am Friday, includes wage increases, more hours for education support professionals and layoff protections for teachers of color.

What's next: The school board will need to approve a plan to make up some of the missed instructional days.

• A proposal from the district and MFT would extend the school day by about 40 minutes, starting April 11, and delay the last day of class before summer break from June 10 to June 24.
