JC Scott, president of California School Employees Association Chapter 828, told the board classified employees feel betrayed by the districts handling of bargaining and the recently announced 2.3% cost-of-living adjustment. He criticized the districts bargaining approach, described the health-and-welfare negotiations as "brinkmanship," and warned the union will return to bargaining armed with grievances if the district does not engage constructively.
