Jeff Tech has a new teacher’s contract following action at the Joint Operating Committee meeting last night. Sam Bundy has the story.
By a unanimous vote, the committee approved the agreement with the Jefferson County-DuBois Area Vocational Technical Education Association beginning July 1 of last year, when the contract expired, and ending in June of 2027. School Director Dr. Barry Fillman said he was “happy to have it resolved.” Union president Melissa Mulhollan said she, too, was happy the process had come to end. The school and the teachers agreed to a contract extension during Covid and have been negotiating since that contract expired last July.
Dr. Fillman also noted that graduation is set for Friday night at 7 pm. and that the weather should be good for an outdoor ceremony. He added that the school’s summer hours will be Monday through Thursday but closed on Fridays.
