Bill Diedrich J.D. , Partner, AALLR
Louise K. Taylor, Ph.D., Assistant Executive Director, School Employers Association of California (SEAC)
The Coronavirus / COVID-19 pandemic will surely come to an end. But when it does, it will leave lasting impacts on the state's ability to protect public education funding. It is likely that local education agencies (LEAs) will face even greater budgetary challenges as a result of the pandemic's effects on state revenues. Most LEAs were already facing budget challenges prior to the virus' onslaught. These new and worsened fiscal conditions will certainly be felt at the negotiating table. It is imperative that small school district leaders begin planning and preparing for even tougher collective bargaining conditions now. This webinar will focus on what steps and strategies small school district leaders can begin analyzing and instituting now. Participants will leave the webinar with practical advice and checklists they can put into practice now and in the months and years to come.
