Striking Proviso High School District 209 teachers on Wednesday reached a tentative agreement with the school board on a three-year contract that is slated to bring students back into the classrooms at the district’s three high schools Monday morning.
“The Board, District administrators and teachers look forward to continuing to work together to maintain and enhance the quality of education and fiscal stability of District 209 for the benefit of our students, staff and community,” Alexander said.
