Superintendent reports classified-staff bargaining request; board schedules initial meetings
Summary
District staff reported classified employees have requested negotiations and proposed short listening and follow-up sessions in early May; board also discussed the proposed school calendar'Friday early-release plan and enrollment.
The superintendent'or district administration (S2) told the board that classified staff have formally requested negotiations and proposed two initial sessions: a short listening meeting on Monday, May 5 and a follow-up on Thursday, May 8 from 4 to 6 p.m. The board discussed times and agreed to reach out to staff representatives to confirm availability.
S2 also reviewed the proposed 2025'26 school calendar, noting four planned two-hour early-release Fridays (before Thanksgiving, before Christmas, before spring break, and the last day of school) intended to create brief staff interaction and professional development time without reducing classified employees' total hours. Board members asked about family impacts and after-school options; staff said some schools may offer Friday programming for students who need supervision.
On enrollment, staff reported figures were close to projections at the time of the meeting and did not indicate major changes.
Next steps include confirming bargaining-session participants and dates, and continuing budget and calendar planning ahead of the district's budget meetings scheduled later in April.
