CAUSE ADVISORY
Agreement Reached !
Ratification process to follow.
==============================
District Colleagues, Employees, Families, & Community Members.
An impasse settlement agreement has been reached !
In the process, Union leadership has managed to secure salary increases, place cash bonuses in the pockets of current and recently retired colleagues, and preserve valuable healthcare options for District employees.
Rather than risk mischaracterizing the agreement with further interpretation, the Agreement is included here. Please review it, gather your questions, and bring them to the upcoming school-site & facility meetings.
Moving Forward:
In the coming weeks, CAUSE leadership will hold school-site & facility meetings to clarify the details associated with the agreement and answer any questions you may have. Our goal is to provide you with an adequate understanding of the agreement, to better ensure that it is ratified by employees on the first attempt. [A schedule of those meetings will be published shortly.]
The ratification process will follow.
Thanks & Appreciation:
Beyond our appreciation for the State appointed factfinder, Mr. Micheal Leb, please thank our CAUSE negotiators:
* Gina Marchand (Our tireless Canalino IA & CAUSE VP)
*.Sarah Rochlitzer (A long serving & strong voice from CHS)
*.Felicity Moore (The “Grand Dame” of the Union / Retired)
