Board implements 2.63% base pay raise for teachers after talks reach impasse
What happened
On June 16 the board was asked to declare impasse with the teachers' association and implement a 2.63% base wage increase for 2026-27, the legal cap tied to inflation. Three bargaining sessions did not produce an agreement.
Why it matters to families
Teacher pay is the largest part of the budget. Staff can earn more through the district's compensation model.
The evidence
The June 16 agenda cites the 2.63% limit and bargaining sessions on May 5, May 13 and June 9, and says the district's last and best offer was 2.63%.
