• Discussed adjunct duty processes.
• Discussed evaluation parameters.

The District is committed to continuing the negotiation process to develop a Tentative Agreement. We remain committed to resolving outstanding matters in a way that reflects our shared priorities and supports our educators and students when teams reconvene on November 18th.

We appreciate your patience and engagement throughout this process, and we will continue to keep you informed.
