Membership ratifies contract by a landslide

On Monday, June 8, 2009, at 5:00 p.m. balloting concluded.  The MNEA membership ratified the proposed amendments to the collective bargaining agreement (The Educational Agreement) for the 2009-2010 school year.  Balloting began on May 29 at 3:01 p.m. and lasted ten days.  Over 50.3% of the membership cast votes. 

 

The results were as follows:

 

Yes = 93.5%

No = 6.5%

 

The Board of Education ratified the contract at its regularly scheduled meeting on June 9, 2009. A synopsis of the tentative agreement and a link to the exact wording can be found at: www.mnea.com/negotiations.htm. 

MNPS budget shrinks?

At this point in time, MNEA does not anticipate any layoffs.  There may be a net reduction of teaching positions, but all reductions of certificated personnel should be accomplished through attrition.  However, the size of the central office will most likely be contracted.

Social networking site open to members only!

Please consider logging on and becoming involved in the discussions at mnea.collectivex.com Theresa Wagner, MNEA Membership Chair, emailed invitations to our Goupsite social networking group a few weeks ago.  All members for whom we have a current email should have received the invitation.

Membership to the site is strictly limited to MNEA members.  One can only join by invitation from a site manager (Theresa Wagner, Stephen Henry, Forestine Cole, and Erick Huth) or by submitting a request to an administrator.  If you lost your message from Theresa, go to mnea.groupsite.com and ask to join.  Your credentials will be verified before approval.  Groupsite is a free service to MNEA provided by NEA.
