The short explanation of this alert was:

“An Act Relative to Protecting the Rights of Custodial, Maintenance and other Non Teaching Employees of School Districts.”

Summary: 

The Education Reform Act of 1993 granted school principals unilateral authority over school buildings.  Unfortunately, this well intentioned provision has had a negative collateral impact on the hiring, promotion and termination provisions of many collective bargaining agreements which cover non teaching school support staff.  The confusion over this provision has resulted in numerous grievances and arbitrations across the state. 

House Bill 2664 would provide clarity on this issue.  The bill would require that all hiring, promotions and terminations for non teaching positions be in accordance with the provisions of the collective bargaining agreement.

House Bill 2664 was heard by Joint Committee on Public Service and received a favorable report.  This means that the members of the Committee voted in support of our bill.

Take Action Today!

We need to keep up our momentum in order to continue moving this important legislation.  Please take a moment to send your State Representative and State Senator and email in support of House Bill 2664.
