Want to Discuss Salaries, Policy,
Working Conditions And Curriculum
The Warwick Education Asso­ciation
has sent a letter to the
Warwick School Board request­ing
a meeting, Douglas Minnich,
Warwick Education Association
President, said yesterday.
Minnich said the letter re­quested
discussions on salaries,
school policies, working condi­tions
and curriculum. He said
the Warwick Education Associa­tion
was in the “process of com­piling
a list that had about
thirty items on it.”
The request is being made
under the terms of the recently
signed' Professional Negotia­tions
Agreement between the
Warwick School Board and the
teachers.
Under the terms of this agree­ment
if either group has mat­ters
to discuss it must request
a meeting by January 15 (to­day).
Fifteen days after this
date a meeting between the
groups must be held.
Most likely both the school
board and the . teachers will
form committees to discuss the
various matters involved.
The Professional Negotiations
Agreement is the outcome of
many meetings between the
school board and teachers. It
supposedly is designed to set a
plan whereby discussions con­cerning
most anything related
to school can be initiated by
either group. It was signed No­vember
18, 1969 and has three
main points:
— It recognizes that the WEA
is the official representative of
the professional employes, in­cluding
teachers, librarians,
nurses, but not the principals.
— It sets standards .for board
and WEA representatives to
meet and discuss “terms and
conditions of employment.”
— It defines procedures for
negotiations.
If the two sides have not
reached agreement by March
15 on all points, a meditation
board would be called into the
picture.
The meditation, panel, consist­ing
of a member of- thè board, a
member of the' WEA, and an
“elected” third member and
chairman, would have 20 days
in which to make recommenda­tions.
The next regularly scheduled
school board. meeting is Tues­day,
January 20.
