As promised in the August edition of the bargaining update newsletter, I am providing regular updates to highlight the status of bargaining with the Teachers Association. As I shared in my last newsletter, the Public Employment Relations Board (PERB) granted the Teachers Association’s request for impasse. Unfortunately, there was a miscommunication when scheduling our first impasse session with the state mediator and the bargaining teams did not meet on September 13.
