PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) -- Students in the La Center School District will likely be heading back to class on Monday.

The district announced Thursday night that it had reached a tentative agreement with the La Center Education Association, which has scheduled a ratification vote for Friday.

If the union approves the contract, class will begin on Sept. 15.

"Thank you for your patience and understanding during this process. We are looking forward to welcoming students back to their classrooms," La Center Superintendent Peter Rosenkranz.

La Center students have missed nearly two weeks of school during the strike.

The Evergreen Schools strike also came to an end this week, with students slated to return to class on Friday.
