Greetings NEA-Jurupa family,
I hope you had a restful weekend! Only a few days until a much needed week off (and then only 3 weeks until 3 weeks off)!!!
Just wanted to provide you with a few quick reminders:
Surveys:
Initial Bargaining Survey: Please complete this by, tomorrow Wednesday, November 17th, at 4 p.m. Our Bargaining Team will be using this to determine which Articles will be opened up for our next cycle. The Association is entitled to open up to 4 articles for 2021-22 negotiations per our Tentative Agreement. There will be a follow-up survey regarding language at a later date.
