Committee ratifies cafeteria managers’ contract for 2024–2027
Summary
The Holliston School Committee ratified a memorandum of understanding that places two cafeteria managers on a separate, non-union contract covering school years 2024–2027; the committee approved the MOU by roll-call during the Jan. 9 meeting.
Holliston — The Holliston School Committee voted to ratify a memorandum of understanding making the district’s cafeteria managers a separate, non‑union bargaining group with a contract covering school years 2024–2027.
Background and terms: Administration said the cafeteria managers previously had been part of the broader cafeteria workers’ contract. After that agreement was renegotiated, the managers petitioned to bargain as a distinct non‑union group. The MOU that the district presented to the committee adjusts salaries to better align with responsibilities, adds a few annualized days of work where managers had been working more days than previously credited, and was retroactive to July (the presentation indicated the effective period covers the 2024–2027 school years).
Vote and procedure: A motion to ratify the cafeteria managers’ contract was made and the committee conducted a roll-call vote. Roll-call responses recorded in the meeting were: Frank — yes; Hillary — yes; Joe — yes; Cynthia — yes; Don — yes; Dan — yes. One committee member indicated they would "pass" during the roll call. Administration noted the group had already ratified the MOU.
Administration indicated the MOU’s financial adjustments were modest and intended to align pay with actual days worked; specific salary figures and the MOU text were made available to the committee and will be included in the district’s personnel records.
