The PESPA membership voted earlier this month to approve the tentative deal with the district. The new agreement would take effect on July 1 and expire on June 30, 2022, according to a press release.
The PESPA represents 625 district employees ranging from secretaries and paraprofessionals to bus drivers and custodians.
The current PESPA deal was approved in 2013 and retroactive starting in 2011. The contract cut health insurance for dependents of employees and was expected to save $9 million over its term.
