4% raise for fifth straight year
The 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 Board of Trustees approved compensation increases for all eligible district employees at a Thursday night.
“After a thoughtful discussion, the board reached a consensus on a 4% raise,” said Justin Chapa, board president. “This decision reflects our commitment to balancing fiscal responsibility with the needs of our exceptional staff.”
Teachers, librarians and other employees paid on the teacher salary scale will receive a 4% raise for the 2024-25 school year. This is the fifth year in a row the board has approved a 4% raise. The starting rate for new teachers is now $64,600 (up from $62,500), and stipends are offered for athletics, bilingual teachers, special education teachers and others. Substitute teacher pay remains competitive ranging from $120 to $175 per day with incentives. Bridge substitutes completing their teaching certifications will earn $225 per day.
Employees paid on salary schedules other than the teacher salary schedule will also receive a general annual pay increase of 4% on their 2024-25 pay grade mid-point.
Targeted adjustments will be made where appropriate to achieve market competitiveness and move staff members closer to the mid-point of their pay grade.
Annual pay for Licenced Specialists in School Psychology (LSSP) will increase from $67,648 to $80,186, and LSSP interns will earn $56,635 per year.
Classroom teacher assistants will see an increase from $17 to $19 per hour, and special education teacher assistants will increase from $18 to $20 per hour. Braillist positions will increase from $20.62 to $22.05.
鈥淲e appreciate the thoughtful decision our board of trustees made to provide a 4% increase for eligible 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 employees,鈥 said Superintendent Dr. Matt Smith. 鈥淲e know these are challenging times in the educational field, and we want to continue to invest in our staff as they work to ensure 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 students learn, grow and thrive.”
