Board briefed on CBA changes: pay frequency, salary matrices and leave updates
Summary
Staff recommended updates to the certified collective bargaining agreement to align teacher salary matrices with new state minimums, move teacher pay to twice‑monthly, increase substitute daily pay to $120 and remove obsolete leave language to comply with federal FMLA.
District staff presented recommended updates to the certified CBA for the 2025–26 and 2026–27 contracts, saying the agreement aligns local salary matrices to recently updated state minimums. The presenter described several operational changes: increasing the longstanding "$100 days" substitute/temporary daily rate to $120, expanding the window in which certain paid days can be used to two weeks prior to the school year, and moving teachers to a twice‑monthly pay schedule to match classified staff pay practices.
Staff also said the instructional day length was changed to match the adopted calendar and that obsolete contractual language—particularly provisions on sabbatical and medical leaves that did not match the federal Family and Medical Leave Act—has been removed to preserve compliance. The presenter said the union and district team worked together on the revisions and recommended board approval.
A trustee asked procedural follow‑ups; the presenter reiterated the recommendation and asked the board to proceed with approval on the consent calendar or a future vote as appropriate.
