The PSE Large Group classified union informed Evergreen School District officials Thursday evening that its members have approved the contract that their leaders agreed to late Wednesday
The following message was sent to families and staff of Evergreen Public Schools Thursday:
Dear Evergreen Community,
I am so happy to confirm that classes in Evergreen Public Schools will begin tomorrow, September 12. The PSE Large Group classified union informed us tonight that its members have approved the contract that their leaders agreed to late Wednesday.
We will have more information in the coming days about how we will make up the 12 instructional days students have missed during the union’s strike. For tonight and tomorrow, we will focus on having our students back in the classroom, and our staff giving them the education they deserve.
Thank you to everyone in the EPS community for your grace and understanding.
Sincerely,
Dr. Christine Moloney, superintendent
