Tentative Agreement FAQs
When/if the contract passes, when will we get paid, will it be a separate check?
We are voting on the agreement March 20-24, 2023. If the contract passes it will go to the Board for approval. The next Board meeting is April 19, 2023. This is after the cut off day for the April 30, 2023 payroll. Just FYI, OSD does not generate their own payroll. Payroll is processed by VCOE. OSD has always been amenable to asking VCOE to print separate checks, but it is their choice. We will make the request. **3/23 Update-We have been notified that teachers will receive the new pay rate in the May payroll check. Retro will not be processed until June. VCOE is building a new database to process and calculate the longevity retro and this will take longer than we hoped. RETRO will not be available until JUNE.
Why does the Salary Schedule have two year 12s?
OSD accepts up to 10 years of service to another district. As such, a teacher may be in year 12 but only in year 3 in the Oxnard School District. Anniversary increments will now begin in year 12, rather than year 15. The first year 12 is for those who have reached year 12 on scale, but not in longevity. The second year 12 applies to those who are in year 12 in OSD.
