Hello,
District proposes pay cuts and longer work
days.
District already has more than $5 million already set aside in next year's
budget for possible cuts.
The Governor's budget will allow for status quo education funding if the tax
initiative passes in November.
The last time we agreed to pay cuts, the District ended the year with $17
million. The attached graphic
shows the District's multi-year projections of the ending fund balance the last
time we absorbed significant pay cuts.
This year's District's ending fund balance is projected above $15 million.
This Monday is our last Rep Council of the year.
All are welcome to attend. Come get information and
discuss options and planning. We must stand together.
You should have received our latest bargaining update in an email from David
Satterlie, member of Bargaining Team and fifth grade teacher at Barry
School. We hope you had a chance to read this latest update.
Another bargaining session has been scheduled before the end of the year -
Friday, May 25.
Perhaps we can move forward with the support of our members. Let's find the
ways to support our bargaining teams
Together we are a more powerful voice for our students and members. You
do all you can do to protect and educate students; the District should protect
and support your efforts.
Please stay in touch. Feel free to call or email. I appreciate your
communciation.
Thank you, Dina  |
