Board approves 2025–27 collective bargaining agreement with licensed staff
Summary
The Port Orford-Langlois board approved a multi-year collective bargaining agreement with licensed staff that includes multi-year salary increases and insurance premium adjustments; board members said the agreement was ratified by teachers and approved by the board unanimously.
The board approved the district’s tentative collective bargaining agreement with its licensed teaching group for the 2025–27 contract period.
Superintendent Tara told the board the negotiated agreement included salary increases and a change in insurance premium contributions. The transcript records a negotiated increase described as "4%" for the first year and discussion around the second-year increase (the meeting transcript includes both "5%" and a later correction to "4.5%" in discussion), and an additional $75 monthly insurance premium contribution for employees; the superintendent described a "me-too" clause extending the $75 premium support to other district employees. The teaching group reportedly ratified the agreement prior to the board vote.
Board members moved to approve the agreement and voted unanimously to adopt it at the meeting. The superintendent said approving the agreement would obviate bargaining for two years.
