Leon County Teachers Association, Leon County Schools hit snag after tentative deal not ratified

  • October 15, 2025

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WCTV) – A tentative agreement between the Leon County Teachers Association and Leon County Schools has not been ratified, according to LCTA.

“The employees of the instructional bargaining unit have not ratified the tentative agreement between LCTA and LCS,” the teachers’ association announced in a social media post Wednesday morning.

The Wednesday announcement follows Scott Mazur, president of the teachers’ association, confirming the tentative agreement to WCTV last week. Mazur said LCTA was able to secure “several important language changes in the contract” as part of the tentative deal.

Last week, LCTA also pushed for a $4 salary increase based on the school district’s budget practices, according to Mazur. But LCS responded, saying they would only provide state Teacher Salary Increase Allocation funds and “made it clear they would not put in additional money for salaries,” per Mazur.

At that time, the LCTA president said if employees had voted not to ratify, the bargaining team would go back ”to the table with the District to negotiate again.”

WCTV has reached out to the teachers’ association and the school district as of Wednesday morning for more information.
