Cost of Capistrano Unified Strike mounting
Reports of OUSD sending buses to CSUD
The Capistrano Unified school district two-day strike has cost the cash strapped district over $326,150 in substitute pay. In a press release on the district’s website the district reports that CSUD had 593 qualified substitutes. The reported daily strike pay the district is paying the subs is said to be $275 a day. That figure would mean the 593 substitutes would cost the district $163,075 a day, with some of the money being made up by not having to pay the daily rate of the teachers who are out on strike.
Locally, their are unconfirmed reports that cash strapped OUSD sent buses to CSUD to help the beleagured district in case the CSUD bus drivers honored the picket lines. CUSD support staff, including bus drivers, have continued to work during the two day teacher walk-out.
