School committee announces ratification of Teamsters Local 25 administrators' contract
Summary
Following executive session, the Medford School Committee reported a ratified contract with Teamsters Local 25, representing administrators; the committee said it voted in favor of ratification during executive session.
The Medford School Committee announced that it has ratified a contract with Teamsters Local 25, the union representing district administrators, after negotiations since the start of the year.
A district official reported during the June 3 meeting that the committee voted in favor of ratifying the contract in executive session, recording 6 votes in the affirmative and 1 absence. The union unit includes assistant principals, directors, special education coordinators and other administrative staff, the committee said.
The district said negotiations had been ongoing since the beginning of the year and that both the union and the committee ratified the agreement. No contract terms or dollar amounts were reported during the open session update; committee members said the vote taken in executive session was to ratify the agreement and return to open session.
Why it matters: the contract covers administrators responsible for school operations and services across the district; ratification finalizes terms agreed in negotiations and affects payroll and staffing budgets. The committee did not read contract specifics into the public record at the time of the announcement.
The committee moved to adjourn after reporting the ratification.
