Board proclaims October 2025 Classified Employee Appreciation Week; members discuss pay, negotiations and next steps
Summary
The board adopted a proclamation declaring October 2025 Classified Employee Appreciation Week and heard discussion about reviewing classified staff pay structure and potential uses of mill-levy funds if the November measure passes.
The Adams 12 Five Star Schools Board of Education voted unanimously on Sept. 17 to adopt a proclamation declaring October 2025 Classified Employee Appreciation Week and to meet with representatives of classified employee groups during the observance.
Board members used the discussion to emphasize the role of classified staff — bus drivers, custodians, maintenance and other noncertified employees — in students’ daily experiences and to call for pay-structure review. Director Courtney (last name not specified in the transcript) said she hopes to see “real meaningful changes in kind of their pay structure come this next negotiation cycle.”
Superintendent Chris Kuroski said district leaders have met with CSCA and DTA leadership about schedules and proposals tied to potential revenue if an upcoming mill-levy measure succeeds. Kuroski cautioned that even with additional funding the district expects to remain “below the middle of the curve” and that any adjustments would be phased. He said Paul Williams and Lisa (last name not specified) have been part of those discussions with district leaders.
The proclamation motion passed by roll call with all board members recorded as voting aye.
