Members of the Dodge City chapter of the Kansas National Education Association are some of the last teachers in the state still working without a contract, but that's not necessarily due to any major problems between the union and the school district's negotiating team.

Eldon Brandenburg, who teaches at Dodge City Middle School, said Tuesday that any comment on the negotiation process is premature at this point, because there is still little of substance to report.
Brandenburg said that the reason for the delay has been more of a scheduling problem than anything else.
