Update May 8, 2013
The current contract between Eugene School District 4J and the Eugene Education Association expires on June 30, 2013.
4J and EEA have begun the formal bargaining process for a new contract. District and association leadership had previously held a number of informal discussions, seeking to come to an agreement including employee compensation concessions to help balance the budget. Unfortunately, these informal talks did not lead to an agreement.
At the first session on May 8, the two bargaining teams agreed on ground rules and a series of dates for future sessions.
The district is hopeful that the negotiation process will conclude speedily, with a fair and mutually acceptable agreement that will avert some of the anticipated staff reductions.
