Teachers, administrators and classified employees will also pay more for healthcare benefits. The cost will go from 5 percent to 10 percent during the first year and then up to 15 percent in the second.
Also, just like the classified and certified employees, full-time administrators will receive a $1,000 stipend in the second year of the contract. Part-time employees will receive $500.
Board President Pat Matthews said the contracts are in the best interest for the community.
“The administrative employee contracts mirror the teachers’ and classified personnel contracts,” she said. “This includes all administrators — from building principals to the superintendent and treasurer. The entire staff has worked together for the best outcome for students and the community’s taxpayers.”
