Mr. Robinson said at this point the contract is not signed and provided an <br /> overview of the new contract. The new contract goal is to improve the rollover <br /> language. This contract has a three-year term with the possibility of an additional <br /> year. the School Committee will need to take action by June 30, 2020 to extend <br /> for an additional year or terminate on June 30, 2021. The term of the contract will <br /> not go beyond 2022. We will post the executed contract on the website. This <br /> contract assumes a zero percent increase with provisions to revisit a salary <br /> increase after the collective bargaining concludes. The remainder of the language <br /> remains pretty much the same. Language regarding his children attending RPS <br /> has been removed and the vacation component was clarified. <br /> Mr. Boivin appreciates the effort to get an agreement in principal(there is an end <br /> date,the committee commits to voting in 2020,the compensation piece has been <br /> addressed,vacation days are capped). <br /> Mrs. Webb is excited for the district to move forward with the new administrators <br /> on board and after 5 years of budget cuts. <br /> Mrs. Liberman asked if a shorter-term contract had been considered with specific <br /> goals to be met. She feels three years is a long time. <br /> Chair Robinson responded that the committee had much discussion regarding the <br /> contract length and it is unrealistic to expect anyone to sign a shorter contract. He <br /> had many discussions with our legal counsel and is comfortable with the length. <br /> Mrs. Liberman is troubled by that fact that certain goals remain unmet and how <br /> many get a three-year guaranteed contract. <br /> Mrs. Webb reminded Mrs. Liberman that this is not a performance discussion. <br /> Dr. Snow Dockser feels this contract empowers the Superintendent to go back to <br /> the vision and feels three years is very appropriate. He is evaluated every year <br /> and she believes in this Superintendent. <br /> Mr. Boivin said this was a negotiation,we have a contract in place. We are bound <br /> by laws and feels it is a win for all sides and provides clarity. <br /> 11. Ajourment <br /> Adjourn <br /> Mrs. Webb moved,seconded by Mrs. Borawski, to adjourn.
