Teachers' union and classified representative raise bargaining and scheduling issues at board meeting
Summary
SUTA representatives discussed bargaining over increased employee health-care contributions and presented comparative salary materials; SEIU indicated work on scheduling meetings for the year.
During reports, Stacey O'Donnell, representing SUTA, told the Board that union members attended the meeting to show support for district staff amid ongoing negotiations. "SUTA has shown up in abundance tonight because of their love of the district, our students and staff," she said, summarizing union presence and concern about proposed increases in employee health-care contributions.
Sarah Castaneda presented a handout comparing salaries within the state and said past budget cycles had not fallen to the low points suggested in the handout. Giordana Guerra-Clark, representing SEIU, said she had nothing substantive to report beyond plans to schedule meetings for the year.
Trustees did not take action on bargaining terms at the meeting; negotiations and potential benefit changes were discussed as ongoing personnel and budget matters.
