Our Guiding Values and Priorities for Negotiations with Employee Labor Groups:

Listening to and communicating with all our employees

Creating a school system that every family, staff and community member can be proud of

Working within our budget while meeting financial obligations

Promoting a culture that is focused on students, their growth and achievement

WE WILL ACCOMPLISH THIS BY:

• Recognizing the needs of our lowest compensated employees
• Ensuring that available funds are distributed equitably across all employee groups
• Providing clear and transparent communication
• Conducting annual reviews of district priorities to help identify areas of greatest need
• Establishing an annual dollar amount for negotiations among all employee groups
• Identifying district negotiations priorities each year
• Supporting our negotiations teams in pursuit of our Guiding Values
