AFSCME Local 1025 v. Sioux Falls School District

ZINTER, Justice.

[T1.] AFSCME Local 1025 (Local 1025) and the Sioux Falls Education Assistants Association (SFEAA) filed grievances against the Sioux Falls School District (District). The unions alleged that the District violated the parties' labor agreements when the District provided 25% wage increases for the 2008-2009 school year. The issues on appeal are: whether the grievances were filed too late; and if not, what the proper wage increases were following a change in a school funding statute that was used in the agreements to determine wage increases.
