After a six-day labor strike that pitted teachers against parents, taxpayers and the Los Angeles school system, officials announced negotiators reached a tentative agreement with the United Teachers Los Angeles to get educators back to work in the nation’s second largest school district.

Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti joined with UTLA President Alex Caputo-Pearl and LAUSD Superintendent Austin Beutner to announce the historic deal on Tuesday morning, with a promise it will be approved by the school board and ratified by the union before teachers return to class Wednesday, KABC reports.

The problem is, taxpayers have no idea how much it will cost and will likely have little to no time to voice any objections until after the ink is dry.

The only terms of the tentative agreement offered to the public included a 6 percent raise, and vague references to class size reductions and added nurses, librarians, and counselors. Caputo-Pearl explained at the press conference that union members will get a copy of the proposed agreement ahead of the vote, but the timeline for sharing the massive spending plan with the taxpayers remains unclear.

For now, parents and taxpayers footing the bill for the more expensive UTLA contract will have to take Garcetti’s word that “today is a day full of good news.”

Both the UTLA and LAUSD officials are claiming victory and patting themselves on the back.

“Los Angeles Unified has reached a tentative agreement with UTLA,” the district posted to Twitter. “More details to follow.”

“I’d like to thank @MayorOfLA for his leadership and his efforts to bring us together to help solve this,” another tweet read. “And I’d like to thank Alex Caputo-Pearl and UTLA’s leadership for their commitment to moving forward together.”

Special education teacher Joaquin Flores told KTLA teachers are “getting a lot of what they asked for” in the deal, which she describes as “almost like metaphoric.”

“The sun’s out,” she said. “When we started, it was all rainy and cold. I feel like it’s a new day. It feels like we’re on the brink of something new.”

And something expensive.

Beutner did not reveal how much the pact will ultimately cost taxpayers, but he did make it clear the new contract won’t help the district’s precarious financial situation. Officials with the county education authority have already warned LAUSD leaders they could lose authority to manage the district’s finances if they further deplete reserves that are already below state mandated levels.

“The issue has always been how do we pay for it?” Beutner said. “That issue does not go away now that we have a contract.”

Regardless, Caputo-Pearl has emerged from the labor strife as a rock star among his union brethren, while the supposed victory will undoubtedly boost Garcetti’s rumored plans for a presidential run in 2020.

Shortly after officials announced the tentative contract Tuesday morning, KTLA reports:

Thousands of boisterous striking teachers – many wearing red – and their supporters gathered on the steps outside City Hall.

The crowd began roaring, blowing horns and chanting the initials of Caputo-Pearl as the smiling leader emerged from the building and walked through the throng of teachers hoisting signs as a band rocked out on a stage nearby.
