The School Board reaffirmed its earlier vote regarding the two-day pay cut. In other words, the two-day pay cut stands. This means that all employees earning more than $20,000 annually will be giving back about $13 million in fiscal year 2001-2002. 2. The School Board voted to authorize the Superintendent to negotiate granting employees affected by the two-day pay cut, two days off during the remainder of the 2001-2002 fiscal year. Teachers will have a caveat that they will be able to carry over at least one day out of the two as time off during fiscal year 2002-2003. 3. The School Board authorized the Superintendent to negotiate with the unions the restoration of the two-day pay cut provided it is prospective in its implementation. The superintendent must negotiate the method and manner of the restoration and report back to the School Board. ### 02-MV/302/JJS Back to News Releases
