Board ratifies faculty agreement and approves automated reference‑checking contract
Summary
Trustees ratified the tentative 2024–25 agreement with the Laguna Beach Unified Faculty Association and approved a Vidcruiter contract to automate reference checks required under AB 2534. Both items passed unanimously.
The board ratified the tentatively negotiated 2024–25 collective bargaining agreement with the Laguna Beach Unified Faculty Association (LaBoufa) after staff said both sides had reached agreement and recommended ratification. The ratification vote was unanimous.
Separately, Human Resources presented a contract with Vidcruiter to help the district comply with Assembly Bill 2534, which requires expanded checks of prior employer complaints and investigations for certificated hires. HR staff said the automated platform would streamline contacting prior districts for required documentation but would not replace staff phone calls to most recent employers; the board approved the contract by unanimous vote.
What happens next: The ratified contract will be finalized in personnel records; HR will implement Vidcruiter as part of hiring processes to maintain compliance with AB 2534 and continue direct reference calls where needed.
