Pocatello District board accepts PEA request to open 2025–26 negotiations
Summary
The Pocatello District board voted to accept a formal request from the Pocatello Education Association to open negotiations for the 2025–2026 school year after administrators confirmed the association's letter and district response were in the meeting packet.
The Pocatello District board voted to accept a request from the Pocatello Education Association to begin formal negotiations for the 2025–2026 school year.
Brenda Miner said the district had received a letter from PEA President Maryanne McGroy asking the board to start the formal negotiation process and confirmed both the letter and the district response were included in the meeting packet. The board then moved and voted to accept the request.
The decision came at the start of a special meeting during which the board reviewed several construction bid items and heard public comment. District staff noted that, under the district's procedure, the board would not take additional formal actions until after the public-comment period was completed.
The board did not provide a roll-call tally in the public transcript for this vote. Next steps are for district administration and the association to set negotiation timelines and procedures, according to the packet materials presented to the board.
