intervention services have a “place” in this model. p

  • If it does not fit in the

model, should it be funded? , Should we do it?

  • All supplemental and

intensive services must be integrated with core.

To balance the remainder of the budget in 2010-11 & 2011-12 we will have to continue to reduce many programs To avoid this situation we are going to pursue a continue to reduce many programs. To avoid this situation we are going to pursue a parcel tax and ask all employees to share in the sacrifices.

How else can unions help?

LAUSD’s unions can help save more jobs

  • Work together to educate the community about the need for a parcel tax

LAUSD s unions can help save more jobs.

  • Work together to educate the community about the need for a parcel tax
  • Jointly advocate in Sacramento for legislative changes & no more cuts to

education P t hi h l tt d t

  • Promote higher employee attendance rates
  • Freeze step and column (automatic raises)
  • Most Central and Local District office employees switch from year‐round work

schedule to B‐Basis (10.75 months) work pay schedule = ~$21 million (As a result of fewer year‐round schools.)

  • Unpaid non‐work days, also known as furlough days. One day = ~$15 million
