Disagreement between the Platte County R-3 School District and Platte County Educational Association on negotiations for the 1981-82 teachers’ contract developed during the board’s Thursday meeting. The board announced it would negotiate on salaries. The teacher organization said it wants to negotiate on its proposed master contract, of which salary “is only one part.” The board said it would have three representatives on the negotiations team and asked PCEA and the system’s other teacher group, Community Teachers Association, each to have three members.
