The Cleveland Teachers Union last week voted to accept a tentative agreement with the Cleveland Metropolitan School District after the Board of Education approved the new contract last Tuesday.
“Our members saw that this was a good and fair agreement that addresses important issues,” Cleveland Teachers Union President Shari Obrenski said in a statement. “This agreement provides paid parental leave, a salary adjustment for our paraprofessionals that work with our most vulnerable students, increases safety and engagement in the classroom with a cellphone ban and will increase communications with families through a gradebook platform.
“We went into these negotiations seeking a contract that respects all educators, retains the quality educators already in our district and recruits new educators to our ranks,” lead negotiator Mary Moore added in a statement. “When a contract is good for kids and fair for members, you see members voting overwhelmingly ‘yes.’”
