The Laguna Beach Unified school board tonight will continue salary negotiations with teachers union officials in closed session.
Negotiations, which have been going on for months, are at a stalemate over a 1% difference in what the district has offered and what the union wants.
The district has offered a 5% salary increase and has put $100,000 aside in its budget for teachers who attend optional staff development days.
The union has rejected the offer and is asking the trustees to increase salaries by 6% for this school year and compensate teachers 55% of their salary for three staff development days a year.
The union is also proposing to make the staff development days mandatory.
The school board meets at 7 p.m. at the district boardroom, 550 Blumont St.
