Travis Unified School District drops furlough days – The Reporter

By Richard Bammer/RBammer@TheReporter.com

After several years of pay cuts and furlough days, Travis Unified teachers, school support and management employees on Tuesday finally heard some good financial news.

The district governing board, meeting in the Travis Education Center in Fairfield, unanimously approved the dropping of two furlough days and a one-time restoration of one “floating” furlough day, the latter for the 2013-14 school year only.

The changes amount to a 1.5 percent restoration in pay for the district’s 265 teachers and other unionized labor groups. Additionally, with the new agreement, the first day of school has been moved forward one day, to Aug. 22.
