Be willing to be a beginner every single morning. 
-- Meister Eckhart
In May 2007, the Missouri Supreme Court made a seemingly simple ruling: public school employees have the right to bargain collectively to negotiate employment terms; in return, school districts must honor any agreements reached.
But the court¹s decision in Independence-NEA vs. Independence School District has left many with questions. Because the court¹s decision was relatively narrow, the General Assembly will be determining many of the answers. MSTA will be working with the General Assembly to craft any related legislation.
MSTA also intends to be a resource for those seeking information about this court decision, bargaining legislation and the resulting process. Get started utilizing the resources below, and return frequently for updates.
