Miami's teachers union gets new contract. Modest raises depend on referendum
The union representing public school teachers in Miami-Dade has agreed to a new contract with the school district , including modest raises. The new contract was finalized earlier this month between leaders of the United Teachers of Dade and the administration of new Miami-Dade Superintendent Rafael Villalobos.
