Ritenour's Tentative 2013-2014 Contract Agreement Information
This year the RNEA and RSD administration entered into a modified Interest Based Bargaining process and concluded successfully in three productive days. Our tentative contract is the result of twelve people working diligently for the common goal of what works best for students, their environment, the teachers, and Ritenour as a whole!
Please review the tentative language for the 2013-2014 school year and the proposed salary schedule. Each of the RNEA negotiation team members will be available at a school near you to answer any questions you have about this tentative agreement. In our bargaining sessions this year, we built upon previous contract language and wrote language concerning the issues that you have voiced as concerns either in the survey or through conversations. What you will see is a great beginning and a positive step toward the true collaborative spirit all of us would like to see in Ritenour.
