The Leon County teachers union has reached a deal with the district on salary increases for the current school year. It comes days after Superintendent Rocky Hanna was asked by the State Board of Education why the money hasn’t been paid out yet with just days remaining in the 2021-22 school year.
The Leon County School District and the Leon Classroom Teachers Association are back at the bargaining table today to see if the sides can reach a deal for pay raises. If no deal is reached, the issue could go before a magistrate. The district has until June to spend the money, or it will go back to the state in September.
