Bargaining Priorities 

Our full contract will not expire until 2028, however our educator led JCEA bargaining team and District management may each bring two (2) articles of their choice for negotiation in addition to compensation. We also may agree to open mutual items. The top two issues from our member bargaining survey which will be brought to the table are:

• Article 5 – Time Management
• Article 9 – Student Discipline and Educator Assistance

We also plan to address the following as mutual items:

• Article 3 – Association Relationship – 3-3-1 Vice President release language only
• Article 10 – Collaboration and Shared Leadership – 10-12 only
• Article 13 – Leaves
• Article 17 – Compensation Structures
• Article 18 – Special Education
• Post-incident response language
• Appendix B – finalizing the % increase change in lanes 4, 5, & 6 of the Coach & Activity Sponsor Schedule

District management will not be opening any additional articles.

Together we will negotiate the changes needed to ensure Jeffco educators have a profession that is sustainable, safe, and treats them with respect.
