ELGIN, IL — In a joint statement, officials from School District U46 and the Elgin Teachers Association announced Wednesday morning a tentative agreement on a new contract for district teachers has been reached, according to The Chicago Tribune. The tentative agreement comes as both sides have been negotiating for months in an effort to replace the contract that expired in August, The Chicago Tribune Reported. The news report added that this is the second tentative agreement both sides have reached since May 2018, as the first proposed contract was rejected by teachers.
