Dropping the union. It’s not worth it. The only thing they did was bargain for a raise we are not getting. Meanwhile I provide supplies for students and kill myself with overtime. They haven’t advocated for smaller special education caseloads. They haven’t advocated for extra planning for special education teachers. They haven’t advocated for safety. I’m tired of throwing away my money. Get the people who run the firefighters and police unions to represent the teachers.

Reid…I can’t see how she’s made anything better. Discipline is still a joke and  teachers’ professional opinions are not respected. Meanwhile FCPS is blowing money on boundaries, Hayfield and middle school start times.  I will not be retiring with FCPS. [/quote]

I just skimmed the CBA.

The contract does stipulate that special education teachers will receive the extended day contract pay. I know it isn’t a raise, but they will continue on that scale.

Planning time seems to be more specific than current policy (especially about CT mtgs) at least at the ES level.

I see the stipend for ES team leads will match that of MS and HS department chairs. I wonder if ES’s without team leads will have to designate them.

It looks like healthcare cost sharing arrangements are locked in.

Personal leave use went from 5 to 6 days.

I think 3 days of bereavement leave that is not deducted from accrued leave is a new benefit of the contract.

I believe the requirement for just cause disciplinary action for all is also new per the contract. Didn’t that used to just apply after a certain number of years employed? The grievance procedures seem to be very specific, but I don’t know how they compare to current policy.
