The Wood County Board of Developmental Disabilities has made changes to the Wood Lane Education Association contract.
The contract originally expired on June 30. The board approved a 60-day extension at its regularly scheduled June meeting.
“The WCBDD approved a three-year contract with the Wood Lane Education Association to commence retroactively on July 1, which the WLEA ratified on July 9. Many of the changes included editing and clarifying,” said Superintendent Brent Baer. “Additionally, a plan was developed to create and maintain a two-year school calendar, expanding Medication certification to instructional staff, and creating personal spaces for paraprofessionals to work and store personal items.”
The contract will expire on June 30, 2027.
The agency is also adopted a resolution to participate in the Krogre opioid settlement.
The next board meeting will take place on Aug. 19.
