Welcome back!
A lot has changed since the end of the school year; here’s an update to start off September:
Professional development funds
The monies negotiated in the last round of bargaining for professional development will be transferred to boards at the end of August. Your local union and the employer reached an agreement as to how these funds would be used.
Wage increase
September 1, 2018 will see the first of three increases this school year.
- September 1, 2018 1% increase
- February 1, 2019 1% increase
- August 31, 2019 0.5% increase
Wage increases will clearly be a focus of central bargaining for our next contract.
