UBC notes 3/23 -- Lunch meeting
Summary of last meeting: Dr. E is proposing cuts of 1 or 2 classroom positons. Says we can only cut staff who received pink slips -- is this correct? What about consolidation?
-- The union is saying that UBCs should not agree to any staff reductions, because of ongoing negotiations
-- UBC and SSC members do not have to sign off on the budget for April 9
Motion: We move that the UBC inform Dr. Eddings that our position is that there should be no cuts to staff.
Seconded
Unanimously approved (21 certificated staff and paras in attendance)
Motion: Given that the staff overwhelmingly feels that we need an opportunity room, we recommend that the counseling office and assistant principal take responsiblity for staffing this room next year.
2nded
Unanimously approved
-- UBC also agreed to try to provide suggestions for cutting the budget that do not include eliminating staff positions.
