Greenwich School Board approves Leona 10 collective bargaining agreement, 8-0, and sends contract to RTM

The Greenwich School District Board of Education voted 8-0 during a virtual meeting to accept the Leona 10 collective bargaining agreement covering 2024 through 2027 and to forward the contract to the Representative Town Meeting (RTM) in April for final approval.

Board members moved into an executive session earlier in the meeting to discuss confidential documents related to collective bargaining; no votes were taken during that executive session. After returning to the public Zoom meeting, a motion was made to accept the Leona 10 agreement and was seconded by Wendy Viso Walsh, a board member. The board president called each member for a roll-call vote, resulting in eight yes votes and approval to advance the agreement to the RTM.

The board’s approval at this meeting does not implement the contract. A staff member noted the contract will await the RTM vote in April before any implementation occurs. The board then heard a motion to adjourn and voted 8-0 to close the meeting.

The actions taken Wednesday night were procedural steps: the executive session allowed confidential bargaining discussion, and the public vote sends the negotiated agreement to the town’s RTM for its consideration and final decision in April. No further details about the contract’s monetary terms, bargaining unit identity, or implementation timeline were specified during the recorded portion of the meeting.
