Teachers' Union ready for some compromise

In the ongoing contract dispute between the School District of Philadelphia and the Philadelphia Federation of Teachers, the teachers' union is prepared to make some compromises.

That's according to KYW Newsradio.

Teachers' union president Jerry Jordan told KYW that the union would "accept a pay freeze” in a new deal. They are also willing to make contributions to their health care premiums.

The teachers' union contract expires on Sunday.
