District readies for certificated bargaining; staff highlights salary context
Summary
Staff told the board certificated (teacher) bargaining is due this year and presented ten‑year salary schedules and a comparative analysis with nearby small schools; the district described historically amicable relations with the union.
Staff reminded the board that certificated bargaining occurs every three years and that this session is approaching. "This year, we are back. Certificated staff is just the teachers. And every 3 years, we have to negotiate a new contract with them with the union," the staff member said, noting Laura remains union president and that the district has historically had productive negotiations.
The packet included a 10‑ to 11‑year salary history and a local comparison of small districts where some salary schedules were hard to locate; staff presented the information as background and said no bargaining proposals had been received yet. Directors emphasized continuing the district's constructive relationship with teachers while preparing for negotiations.
