Teacher Contract Settled in Meridian District #15

Macon, IL – The teachers in Meridian Community Unit School District 15 will soon be working with a contract, as the Board of Education and the Meridian Federation of Teachers (MFT, IFT Local 4487) reached an agreement last night. The teachers have been in negotiations with the board since June and working under an expired contract since August.


MFT President Brian Pekovitch released the following statement after signing the tentative agreement:


“I am fortunate to work with great teachers who are committed to giving Meridian students the high-quality education they deserve. We’re thrilled to report that we now have a contract that recognizes our dedication and ensures the district is a source of stability for our community. We truly appreciate the outpouring of support we received from parents and students, and we look forward to maintaining a collaborative relationship with the board and district administration. As always, our number one priority is our students.”

Teachers will have the opportunity to review and vote on the tentative agreement before further details are released. A ratification date has been set by the union for November 14.





The Meridian Federation of Teachers (Local 4487) represents approximately 70 teachers in Meridian Community Unit School District 15. The union is affiliated with the Illinois Federation of Teachers.
