Important Information for Everyone
|
The Englewood Educators and the Board Negotiations Teams came together on May 8, 2017 for the fifth negotiations session this spring. The teams began the session with continued dialogue regarding compensation matters and remained at the table utilizing the interest-based bargaining process as long as possible. This included discussion of health insurance increases, the PERA mandatory increase, steps, lanes, base increases, and other related financial matters. Ultimately, the teams utilized the services of the neutral federal mediator in order to reach a mutual settlement on all issues.
The settlement will be presented to the EE's membership for ratification. After a successful ratification, the settlement will be presented to the Board for approval.
Join us tonight at the Charles Hay World School ground breaking and next Thursday for Clayton's. Refreshments and entertainment will be provided!

Stress Management and Resiliency
Uncontrolled stress can lead to health risks. But the good news is that resilience can help you bounce back from stress. As we develop our resilience, we can better adapt to challenging events or circumstances. Use the following eLearning modules as a starting point for developing your resilience and taking control of your stress for the sake of your health.
"Resilience is the process of adapting well in the face of adversity, trauma, tragedy, threats or significant sources of stress...Resilience is not a trait that people either have or do not have. It involves behaviors, thoughts and actions that can be learned and developed in anyone." ~American Psychological Association
