Huntington Beach teachers rally for a raise, after a school year with no new contract

HUNTINGTON BEACH — Their red T-shirts proclaimed, “HB teachers would rather be teaching.” Actually, however, the rally Tuesday, May 14, took place a couple of hours after they had completed a full day of schooling.
Some 200 demonstrators gathered outside the Huntington Beach Union High School District office along Bolsa Avenue waving signs with such slogans as, “We value students. Please value us.”
