A four-year collective agreement has been ratified between the Near North District School Board and the union representing its occasional elementary teachers.
The agreement covers the period from Sept. 1, 2022 to Aug. 31, 2026.
“We are happy that our members have ratified a local four-year agreement with Near North District School Board,” says Margaret Soroye, president of the Near North Occasional Teachers local with the Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario. “The deal reflects our commitment to providing high quality education while ensuring fair and improved working conditions for our dedicated members.”
Craig Myles, director of education with the board, says the ratification means the “valuable work” of occasional elementary teachers will continue.
