Informational Picketing and Mediation Results in a Tentative Agreement for Great Falls School Office Personnel<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

(GREAT FALLS, MONT.) Late Tuesday evening\u2013after back to back days of informational picketing and seven months of bargaining\u2013a tentative agreement was reached between Great Falls Office Personnel and the school district. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The tentative agreement includes pay increases substantially more than the district\u2019s original offer. Details of the tentative agreement will be released once union members have had a chance to review the deal and vote on its ratification this evening\u2013Thursday, November 30th\u2013at the Heritage Inn. The agreement, when ratified, will bring the Great Falls Office Personnel\u2019s wages much closer to their counterparts in similar districts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis deal would not have been possible without our members\u2019 incredible solidarity and engagement,\u201d said Office Personnel President Daneen Pate. <\/strong>\u201cTogether, we\u2019ve secured a fair agreement. While our union reviews the agreement, we\u2019d like to thank the community for their support and acknowledge district leaderships\u2019 good faith bargaining this week.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis outcome shows what\u2019s possible when union members join together,\u201d said MFPE President Amanda Curtis. <\/strong>\u201cWe\u2019re all incredibly proud of the Association of Office Personnel members and grateful to the larger labor family who stood with us in solidarity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
