N S G l' T lv: I 4 g 4 Teachers vote today on new salary contract a tentative contract agreement been presented to teachers in the iLie School District for their sible ratification. jlbout 50 of teachers, members of the MP'ne Education Association, Wednesday afternoon to clarify JLiils of the agreement, which calls base salary increase of 4.8 Lrcent, retroactive to July 1, 1985. A E.A. members will vote on the contract today (Nov. 7) with results j the vote to come Friday, acc-ording to Ardy Greening, president of the Alpine Education Association. Nick Franklin, immediate past president of the contract had been present t A.H..A. faculty representatives Monday. They, in turn, took contract to their teachers "We feel they (the have teachers) must been pleased with the agreement or more of them would have turned out for the general membership meeting " Mr Franklin said when interviewed after the meeting. The contract, if ratified by the teachers, will be presented to members of the district board of education at their Nov. 12 board meeting for approval. The agreement came after recommendations by fact-finde- r Don Ulmer of the State School Board were received last week, bringing to an end talks which began ago. Ulmer's findings, released Wednesday night, claimed money was not the main issue in the con-tract stalls. "It seem to me that the real problem is a hesitancy on both sides to make a move which might be intepreted by its constituency as conciliatory or 'weak,' " Ulmer said. He recommended both sides give on the salary issue - and that is what happened. In addition to the base salary increase, the agreement calls for an additional step increase of $65 for steps 2 and 3. Salary lane and step increases are to be funded by the board; as is the increased insurance cost necessary to maintain the insurance program at the 1984-8- 5 benefit level. Compensation for extra-curriculu-supervision such as coaching, activity supervision, etc. will also be increased by 4.8 percent. Other contract features involve the career ladder program; early out preparation day; health and disability leave; personal leave; preparation time for elementary education; and an orderly ter-mination policy. Mrs. Greening told reporters the fact finder said the two sides were in a 'power play" and needed 'to go to an area of giving on both sides in order to settle." She said she is pleased 'at this point with the 4.8 percent base in-crease when it is considered in conjunction with other things in the agreement." She feels the teachers will ratify the contract - that the 'majority are happy with what they have received and are just pleased to have this finalized." 'I can't forsee it not being ratified," she said. She commended members of the negotiating team for their unity and willingness to stick together, and said basically the same team will be serving next year. .
