Valley City (CSI) — The negotiations between the Valley City Public School Board and the Valley City Education Association is over and remains at impasse.

The State Fact Finding Commission, Chairman Dean Rummel met with the groups to discuss any modifications in the medical insurance issue.

Superintendent Dean Koppelman says the two sides remain at impasse.

VCEA President Kathy Lentz says the teachers have agreed to the State Fact Finding Commission recommendations without modification.

Rummel will now publish his reasons why the negotiations failed in a one page ad in the Valley City Times Record the week of November 18, 2013.
