Governing board approves tentative agreement with Association of Coronado Teachers including 4% salary package
Summary
Board approved a tentative agreement between Coronado Unified and the Association of Coronado Teachers that includes a 4% salary increase (2% retroactive to 2025–26 and 2% for 2026–27), expanded leave language, adjustments to evaluation timelines and one‑time stipends tied to an earlier school‑year start.
The Coronado Unified School District governing board voted Oct. 9 to approve a tentative agreement with the Association of Coronado Teachers (ACT) that the district said includes changes to leave language, evaluation timelines and compensation.
Deputy Superintendent Salamanca summarized the financial terms. The agreement includes a total 4% salary provision: 2% retroactive to the start of the 2025–26 school year, and an additional 2% to the salary schedule for the 2026–27 school year. The package also includes one‑time stipends tied to an earlier start date for the school year for eligible unit members returning from the prior year and planning to return the following year.
Salamanca said the tentative agreement also contains non‑financial provisions including expanded opportunities for paid time off, an MOU adjusting evaluation timelines connected to the earlier start, and language committing the district and union to continue discussion about dual‑enrollment offerings. The financial impact was summarized in an AB 1200 disclosure included in meeting materials.
The board motioned to approve the item; a trustee moved and a second was recorded. The meeting transcript records the vote as “Motion passes.” No roll‑call vote tally naming individual trustees was provided in the public transcript.
What the vote does and does not do: approval of the tentative agreement allows the district to finalize terms per the MOU and to reflect the cost in budget documents and the AB 1200 disclosure. The district did not present details in the meeting transcript about the total dollar cost or precise budget allocations beyond noting the AB 1200 financial disclosure was included in the agenda packet.
Speakers and next steps: Deputy Superintendent Salamanca answered questions from trustees before the vote. The superintendent and district staff indicated they are available to provide follow‑up information on the AB 1200 disclosure and budget impacts as needed.
