Dear NESPA Colleagues,
On Tuesday, August 26, we will vote on the tentative agreement we have reached with the School Board’s negotiating team. It will be upstairs in the big white barn across the street from the Admin Center. (Park in the huge parking lot near the barn, which extends all the way to the freeway.)
TUESDAY, AUGUST 26. Sign in begins at 4 PM. Meeting begins at 4:30 PM.
RUSSELL’S RESTAURANT:UPSTAIRS HALL
3305 Monte Villa PkwyBothell, WA 98021
The meeting will finish between 5:30 and 6 PM. If our teachers (NSEA) have NOT yet reached a tentative agreement with the School Board by August 26, we will join them across the street for pizza and picketing and briefly attend the 7 PM School Board meeting. The teachers helped us get our contract, and we’ll do our part to support them, in turn. Their issues include class size and compensation.
WEA President Mary Lindquist will speak at our contract vote! We will distribute a summary of the contract changes, and vote by secret ballot. There will be time for questions. This is a great time to learn about the rights and the opportunities you have at work. Those who are present will vote; there is no absentee ballot system.
You are welcome to bring your children, if you have no alternative, and if you maintain them under your supervision. Please call your co-workers and invite them to come also!
Please contact Deb if you have questions.
Yours,
Deb Murphy Kraig Peck
NESPA Co-President WEA Staffperson
