Chair Reviews Three-Year Contract Draft, Notes Two Edits and June 2029 Expiration

The Lac qui Parle Valley Schools board reviewed a proposed three-year contract under agenda item 4 during an early-morning meeting. The Chair said board members had copies of the draft and that it largely follows boilerplate language from MSBA. "Rick has also looked at it. Karina had somebody else look at it on her side," the Chair said, noting multiple reviews.

The Chair said the version under discussion was the same as the one previously circulated "except for, we went to, 3,000 on the, oral 3 d versus the 2. And then we front loaded 36 days." The transcript does not specify what the figure "3,000" refers to or the precise meaning of "oral 3 d versus the 2," so the record of the meeting does not clarify that point. The Chair also said only two changes were made to the draft.

The Chair described the agreement as a three-year contract and said it would run through the next full school year, with an expiration in June 2029. The record provided does not show a formal motion or a vote on the agreement in the segments supplied; the Chair said attendees had copies and offered further assistance.

Next steps were not recorded in the provided transcript; the Chair concluded the discussion by thanking participants.
