The raise and adjustments represents more than $6.44 million.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For teachers working 187 days, this is an annual increase of $1,875, with the starting salary for a first-year teacher with no experience of $58,600. The teacher hiring scale also includes market adjustments for various steps. In addition, the Board requested that the hiring scale be extended from 30 years of experience to 35 years of experience.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Board approved a general compensation increase of three percent of the midpoint for each respective pay grade for all other employees. Also, due to hiring challenges, the Board approved selected&nbsp; adjustments to the Auxiliary pay scales. The total cost for these adjustments is estimated at $643,000.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">\u201cThe Board recognizes the tremendous sacrifices and pressures our staff continue to be under since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic,\u201d Board President Joe Tolbert said. \u201cBy approving these raises, trustees are not only impacting next year\u2019s income but also retirement income in the future years.
