“That would be our teacher associates, custodians, administrative assistants, food service workers, maintenance staff, bus drivers, tech staff, and nurses,” Ebeling says. “So that’s a lot of different people we are sending out work agreements for, so we set that hourly wage — that was set at a total package increase of around three percent.”

School administration received a similar package increase.
