The Gilroy Federation of Paraeducators (“GFP”) and the Gilroy Unified School District are pleased to announce that we have reached a Tentative Agreement.

The Gilroy Federation of Paraeducators ("GFP") represents District employees who provide essential operational services for the students, staff and community of Gilroy.  GFP members support student learning through servicing students directly in and out of the classroom in numerous ways, including, but not limited to, academic supports; more individualized supports for students with special needs; translation services and occupational therapy.  The mission of servicing the students of Gilroy Unified is woven intricately by the critical work that GFP members provide. 

The major terms of the agreement include increases in salary, increases in contributions to health benefits, summer assistance, personal leave, bereavement, health and safety, and a new article reflecting members serving as Occupational Therapists.  

Gilroy Unified School District Superintendent, Anisha Munshi, is grateful for the ongoing partnership between the District and GFP leadership. "I am thankful for our GFP partners, who create welcoming, safe, and equitable learning environments for our students on a daily basis. Their hard work, commitment to excellence and delivery of high-quality services has a tremendous impact for our school communities."
