SDEA members have ratified the reopener TA with a 96% YES vote, securing important wins to our collective bargaining agreement and laying the groundwork for wage improvements after the state budget has been finalized by the legislature over the summer. This round of reopener bargaining covers the last year of our historic agreement that we won through our collective actions last school year. Our agreement puts us in a strong position to go right back to the bargaining table for a broader, multi-year contract alongside our union siblings in Los Angeles, Oakland, San Francisco, Anaheim, and dozens of others whose contracts all expire alongside ours in June 2025.  Over the summer, SDEA staff and member leaders will actively monitor the implementation of these agreements, especially transfers, as we also plan and prepare to build an even stronger SDEA in the 2024-25 school year and beyond.  Enjoy your summer!  Together We Are Stronger!
