Teachers ask for more lead time on moves; union leader glad there were no layoffs
Summary
Mackenzie Woodcock, co‑president of the Wy'East Education Association, told the board teachers are settling into new assignments and asked the district to give more lead time for staff moves. She also expressed relief that there were no layoffs or RIFs this year at OTSD.
Mackenzie Woodcock, co‑president of the Wy'East Education Association, told the board that teachers are "getting into the swing of things and their new positions" and requested that the district provide more preparation time when staff moves occur.
Woodcock also noted she was pleased there were no layoffs or reductions in force at Oregon Trail School District 46 this year. Her remarks were presented as a certified‑staff update; the board did not record a formal response or an immediate policy change in the minutes.
The exchange highlighted staffing stability as a positive development for the start of the 2025–26 school year and flagged a recurring implementation issue (lead time for assignment changes) that may warrant follow up by district administrators.
