Contract update

The School Board voted unanimously last night to approve the tentative agreement ratified by members on November 1st. The terms of the agreement are attached and will go into effect immediately. The new contract and salary schedules are being worked on and will be posted on the www.vacateachers.org website as soon as they are ready.

 

The retro base pay will be on the December pay warrant. Retro adjustments for extra duty/stipend pay earned since the beginning of the year will be on the January pay warrant. Attached is a formula to calculate your retro base pay developed by Brenda Hensley, our Bargaining Chair. To use an excel worksheet developed by Wood Rep DJ Bowen to make this calculation, click here.
