PTEA bargaining ongoing; union lists priorities including pay, processes and class sizes
Summary
Sandra Tringolo told the board that bargaining has continued since January, with priorities of fair and competitive compensation, clear processes, honoring professional expertise, time for planning, and reasonable, equitable class sizes; bargaining has three sessions remaining.
Sandra Tringolo, building representative and bargaining chair for the Phoenix-Talent Education Association (PTEA), briefed the board that bargaining has been ongoing since January and that three sessions remain. She listed the association's priorities as "fair and competitive compensation, clear and equitable processes within the contract, a contract that honors the professional expertise and experience of our members, a contract that gives us time to create quality lessons and provide quality service to the families of our community, and finally, reasonable and equitable class sizes."
Tringolo also reported a 97% membership rate for PTEA and thanked members and community partners for supporting spring events. She said bargaining parties hope to reach agreement before the current contract expires and emphasized the association's focus on classroom conditions and compensation rather than publicity.
