Winfield SD 34 board approves four‑year teachers' contract
Summary
The Winfield School District 34 Board of Education voted unanimously July 30 to approve a new four‑year contract with the Winfield Teachers' Association. The contract was approved by roll call after a motion by Heather Armstrong and a second from Matt Tibble.
The Winfield School District 34 Board of Education approved a new four‑year contract with the Winfield Teachers' Association during a special meeting July 30.
"I move to approve the 4‑year contract with the Winfield Teachers' Association as presented," Heather Armstrong said when making the motion; Matt Tibble seconded and a roll call vote recorded all members voting yea.
The unanimous vote means the district and the teachers' union will proceed under the terms presented to the board; the minutes do not list contract dollar values or specific changes to salary scales or benefits. Board members who recorded votes were Heather Armstrong, Dave Hempe, Lynn Kammes, Dan Krasinski, Carrie Linden, Matt Tibble and Alisa Wolfe.
Board action came after a public comment period in which residents raised concerns about the district's separate legal actions related to a local tax increment financing (TIF) issue. The district minutes do not indicate any additional debate or amendments to the contract during the meeting.
No implementation timeline or budgetary appropriation for the contract is listed in the minutes; the board will handle any required budget adjustments in later meetings as needed.
