     Michael Dunn, Superintendent, appeared on behalf of the employer.

                           FINDINGS OF FACT

1.   The above-named petitioner filed with the Public Employment
     Relations Commission a petition for investigation of a question
     concerning representation of employees of the above-named
     employer.  The petition was timely filed and was accompanied by
     a showing of interest which was administratively determined by
     the Commission to be sufficient. 

2.   Following an investigation conference, the Commission proceeded
     with determination of the question concerning representation,
     and issues framed concerning the eligibility of certain
     employees for inclusion in the bargaining unit were reserved
     for subsequent determination.

3.   These representation proceedings were conducted by the
     Commission in the bargaining unit described as:

          ALL EMPLOYEES WHO CONDUCT EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES IN
          THE CHENEY SCHOOL DISTRICT FOR WHICH NO CERTIFICATION IS
          REQUIRED, EXCLUDING SUPERVISORS, CONFIDENTIAL EMPLOYEES,
          CERTIFICATED EMPLOYEES WHEN PERFORMING AS SUCH, CASUAL
          EMPLOYEES AND ALL OTHER EMPLOYEES.

4.   All proceedings were conducted under the supervision of the
     Commission in a manner designed to afford the affected 
     employees a free choice in the selection of a bargaining
     representative, if any; a tally of the results was previously
     furnished to the parties and is attached hereto; the reserved
     eligibility issues do not affect the outcome of the question
     concerning representation; and no meritorious objections have
     been filed with respect to these proceedings.


                          CONCLUSIONS OF LAW

1.   The unit described in paragraph 3 of the foregoing Findings of
     Fact is an appropriate unit for the purposes of collective
     bargaining within the meaning of RCW 41.56.060.

2.   All conditions precedent to issuance of an interim
     certification have been met.


NOW, THEREFORE, it is

                              CERTIFIED

1.   The employees of the above-named employer in the appropriate
     bargaining unit described in paragraph 3 of the foregoing
     Findings of Fact have chosen:

                      CHENEY COACHES ASSOCIATION

     as their exclusive bargaining representative for the purpose of
     collective bargaining with their employer.

2.   The above-captioned matter is remanded for further proceedings
     on the eligibility issues reserved as described in paragraph 2
     of the foregoing Findings of Fact.


Issued at Olympia, Washington, this 22nd day of May, 2008.
