CITY, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) After more than 8 months of impasse a tentative agreement has been reached between the Valley City Public School Board and the Valley City Education Association concerning the 2013-2014 negotiated agreement between the two entities.

VCEA Attorney Michael Geiermann says the impasse is resolved and everyone can move on.

Valley City School District Attorney Rachel Bruner-Kaufman says the impasse is finally behind us.

More details about the tentative negotiated agreement will be released once all the members of the Valley City Education Association vote to approve or ratify the proposed agreement.

In April Southeast Judicial District Judge Jay Schmitz issued an opinion concerning the impasse between both sides.

Judge Schmitz ruled in favor of the VCEA by saying the school district was in breach of the agreement by demanding that teachers sign contracts with modification the board made to Section 3 of the contract pertaining to healthcare.
