Orange County School Board Postpones Vote on Teacher Contract Recommendations

The Orange County school board has delayed a vote until November 13 on a special magistrate's recommendations concerning a dispute with the teachers union. The recommendations, released October 16, propose a 2.5% wage increase for instructional staff, aligning more closely with the union's position than the district's 1.98% offer. This postponement prolongs uncertainty for teachers regarding wages and health insurance costs.
