NAUGATUCK The Board of Education and the union that represents employees at the Early Childhood Center at Central Avenue have agreed on a new, three-year contract.
The contract, which is retroactive from July 1, 2019 and runs through June 30, 2022, was unanimously approved by the board and signed by the union last month.
Under the contract, workers retroactively received a 1.77% raise for the 2019-20 fiscal year and a 2% raise this fiscal year. Salary increases for the 2021-22 fiscal year will be based on early childhood grants received by the school board, the contract states.
The union represents about 30 employees, including teachers, coordinators, interventionists and door monitors, according to Human Resources Director John Lawlor.
