Gower School District 62 recently issued the following announcement.
Members of the Gower Educators Association, Gower Administration, and Gower Board of Education are pleased to report that a three-year Collective Bargaining Agreement has been approved by all parties and will be in effect from the start of the 2018-19 school year through the 2020-2021 school year.
The basic terms of the agreement consist of average pay increases of 2.94% for Teachers with less than 19 years of experience (individual increase ranges of 2.05% – 3.91%) and 2.75% pay increases for Teachers with 19+ years of experience over the three-year term.
Board President Ryan Asmus is pleased with the collaborative effort throughout the bargaining process and stated, “The Gower Teachers’ Union and the Board of Education developed a mutual understanding at the start.
We agreed that we would work together to stay within our financial means as a school district while continuing to provide the high-quality and expanded programs that make Gower a destination district. This agreement accomplishes that and is fair for all parties involved.”
