In a Facebook post on Wednesday, Leon Teachers wrote that “employees of the instructional bargaining unit have not ratified the tentative agreement between LCTA and LCS.”
The move comes after a tentative salary increase was reached earlier this month of about $40 a paycheck. This was going to be funded by money given to the district by the State for teacher salary increases. That’s as pressure has been applied by the Education Commissioner for the district to apply these funds designated for these increases.
The agreement needed to be ratified by both the district and the union before the salary increases could be implemented.
This is a developing story. We will have more information about the next steps for the union and the district throughout the day.
