Teachers ratified agreements for salary and other articles in the Orange County School Board and Classroom Teachers Association contract for 2021-22.
The contract salary agreement was ratified by a majority vote of 73.1% “yes,” and the health and safety memorandum of understanding was ratified by a majority vote of 86.7% “yes.”
The Orange County School Board approved the CTA contract during its regularly scheduled board meeting last week. The compensation package provides:
• Instructional personnel also will receive a one-time $2,500 supplement hired on or before Oct. 8, 2021, and remain working as of the day of payout.
• A cost-of-living increase of $100 for all instructional personnel, and state-mandated performance pay of an additional $400 for teachers rated as “Highly Effective” for 2020-21 and an additional $200 for teachers rated as “Effective” for 2020-21.
• In addition, instructional personnel will receive a retention supplement for the 2021-22, 2022-23 and 2023-24 school years based on cumulative years of instructional employment in a benefited position as of the initial date of payout for each year of the three-year program.
• There are no premium increases associated with the plan design changes in health insurance coverage through the 2023-24 plan year and the board will cover the costs associated with continuing the 2020-21 plan design of the medical plan for 2021-22.
