From Times Wire Reports
Detroit teachers ended their more than two-week strike and paved the way for Detroit’s 130,000 students to return to class today, seven school days late.
The union’s executive board approved a tentative three-year contract Tuesday, and teachers voted Wednesday to return to work while the ratification vote takes place by mail.
The walkout began Aug. 28 after teachers rejected a two-year contract proposal. Classes had been scheduled to start Sept. 5.
