FURLOUGHS AND HEALTH INSURANCE ISSUES RESOLVED
After months of budget cuts, school board workshops and budget hearings, PCTA and PESPA were able to conclude negotiations regarding furlough days and health insurance.

The end result of negotiations is that PCTA and PESPA successfully bargained NO FURLOUGH DAYS!
