Summary

The Novato Unified board voted to approve the district's annual certificated and classified seniority lists; staff described the lists as living documents that will be updated for later hires.

District staff presented the annual certificated seniority list and explained the document is distributed in draft form to bargaining-unit members and is continually updated as hires occur. "What you have before you here is something that we bring before you annually," the staff presenter said, noting the list is used for transfers, promotions and potential reductions.

Trustees approved Resolution 12 (certificated seniority list) in a roll-call vote recorded as affirmative across trustees. Staff then presented the classified seniority list, which was updated through Jan. 6; the board approved Resolution 13 in a subsequent roll-call vote. Both approvals were routine and carried with the board's recorded affirmations.

Staff emphasized the lists are living documents and that additional hires after the approval will be included in next year's draft.
