​The Classified Employees Association (CEA) is your local union — built by and for the employees who keep our schools running.
As we enter 2026, CEA is fully engaged on the issues that matter most to our members: contract enforcement, fair treatment during weather closures, health insurance changes, leadership elections, and critical upcoming negotiations with the District.
We are preparing for major collective bargaining in the months ahead. The District projects $58.48 million in FY27 costs under the current contract, and CEA’s proposals focus on strengthening workplace safety, job protections, recruitment, and long-term stability for our workforce

At the same time, we are protecting members today — clarifying contract language during wind-day closures, addressing insurance deductible resets on January 1, and keeping members informed every step of the way

CEA is also calling on every member to step up as an ambassador. With membership just under 50%, growing our ranks is essential to maintaining real bargaining power and securing stronger outcomes for everyone

This union works because regular people stand together.
When a job is on the line — we fight.
When the contract is written — we write it.
When something goes wrong at work — we’re the first call.
That’s why CEA matters.
