UTD Halts Forced Layoff Proposal UTD has successfully protected members by forcing a modification to Superintendent Crew's plan that could have resulted in nearly 200 layoffs of UTD bargaining unit positions. UTD stood firm and demanded that the UTD/MDCPS contract be followed. Due to UTD's strong stand, any individuals affected will be afforded the negotiated surplus procedure prior to implementation of any layoffs. UTD stood up for our Career Specialists and other affected positions while working to reach a compromise with the School Board on implementing Dr. Crew's proposal. Oct. 21 - See letter from Dr. Crew regarding the plan Oct. 25 - See MDCPS Reorganization Plan Frequently Asked Questions Oct. 25 - See Summary of Recommended Reductions of Filled Positions by Title Oct. 27 - Superintendent's Reorganization and Restructuring Implementation |
