Hello McSwain Community,

I hope you are well. I am pleased to announce that we have successfully completed negotiations with our CSEA (California School Employees Association) unit here on campus and have reached a tentative agreement. On behalf of the District Office, I want to thank the bargaining team for their dialogue, discussion, and the ongoing partnership between the district and CSEA. I am pleased that we were able to conclude this process collaboratively.

I look forward to continuing to work alongside our classified members as we close out this school year and prepare to open the next school year in August.

Best,
Mr. Pannu
