Glendora Unified board approves tentative teachers agreement with modest raises and paid parental leave
Summary
Trustees approved a tentative deal with the Glendora Teachers Association that includes a 1% on‑schedule raise retroactive to July 1, 2025, a 1% one‑time bonus, increased health‑benefit contributions and a newly negotiated 10‑day paid parental leave.
The Glendora Unified School District board voted at its regular meeting to approve a tentative agreement with the Glendora Teachers Association that provides modest salary increases and new paid parental leave.
The two‑party deal, presented jointly to the board, includes a 1% on‑schedule raise retroactive to July 1, 2025, a 1% off‑schedule one‑time bonus, stepped increases in district health‑benefit contributions (listed in the agreement as $100, $150 and $200 for employee tiers) effective Jan. 1, 2026, and 10 days of paid parental leave for birth or adoption of a child effective July 1, 2026. The agreement also includes contract language changes across several articles and a miscellaneous provision addressing artificial intelligence.
A GTA representative told the board the terms “recognize and honor the immense contributions of our teachers” and said the association sees the changes as consistent with retaining and attracting staff. Dr. Eric Osborne (district administration) described the documents on the agenda as a public disclosure package that outlines the fiscal effects of the agreement.
Trustee Garcia praised the inclusion of paid parental leave as a notable gain, calling it “a huge, huge win.” Trustees discussed the terms briefly before moving to voice votes. The board approved the public disclosure and the implementation of the tentative agreement in separate motions and voice votes; the transcript records the motions, seconds and unanimous “aye” responses but does not list individual roll‑call tallies.
Formal motions recorded in the meeting transcript: the motion to approve the public disclosure/tentative agreement was moved from the dais and seconded, and the separate motion to implement the tentative agreement was likewise moved and seconded; both motions were approved by voice vote.
What happens next: The tentative agreement, as presented and approved for implementation, will be finalized per the contract process outlined by the district and the GTA. The meeting transcript does not specify any additional fiscal documents beyond the disclosed package or a final signed date.
