Title
APPROVAL OF 2014-2015 CLASSIFIED AND INSTRUCTIONAL BARGAINING AGREEMENTS
Description
On Friday, November 14, 2014, the bargaining teams for the School Board of Sarasota County and Sarasota Classified Teacher's Association reached tentative agreement on the collective bargaining agreements for both the Instructional and Classified Bargaining Units. Ratification packages for each tentative agreement are attached here. The tentative agreements include several key language changes and a salary settlement represented by a 2.5% "Performance Supplement" that will be paid to Classified staff who receive other than an unsatisfactory evaluation, instructional staff who receive a Highly Effective or Effective overall TES evaluation score, or a Highly Effective or Effective rating on either portion of the TES in the 2013-14, and all first year teachers for the 2014-15 school year. The supplement will be paid in two installments, one in December of 2014 and one in June of 2015. Should the base student allocation exceed $4,164, half of the supplement or 1.25%, will be added to the salary schedule effective July 1, 2015. The SC/TA membership is voting on ratification December 8 and 9, 2014.
Recommendation
