From Times Staff Reports

Newport-Mesa Unified School District and its teachers union said Wednesday that they have reached a tentative agreement on a contract that would raise teachers’ salaries about 6%.

Most of the district’s 1,000 teachers will get the increase, while beginning teachers and those with 28 years or more of experience will get slightly more.

The two-year contract must be ratified by union members, who will vote Friday, and district trustees, who vote Dec. 11.
