Background:
|
In 2020, the General Assembly amended Virginia Code § 40.1-57.2 to repeal the prohibition against collective bargaining for employees of public bodies, including school board employees, effective May 1, 2021. The legislation granted school boards the authority to recognize exclusive bargaining representatives, to certify/decertify freely chosen exclusive
representative(s), and to collectively bargain and enter into collective bargaining agreements with the exclusive representative(s).
On December 2, 2021, the Alexandria City School Board adopted a Resolution Concerning Collective Bargaining by Alexandria City Public Schools resolving that the School Board research and collect the information necessary to adopt a collective bargaining resolution consistent with Virginia Code § 40.1-57.2. |
