The Fox Board of Education voted to approve a 3% cost-of-living raise for all support personnel at its Aug. 21, 2025 meeting. Clerk Stacie Fletcher moved the increase and Member Carolyn McConnell seconded; Vice‑President Otto Young and the two motioning board members voted aye. Two board members were absent.
The minutes state the raise applies to "all support personnel" but do not list an effective payroll date or the budget line that will cover the increase. The record does not attribute additional discussion or details about funding sources to any speaker.
Why it matters: a districtwide cost-of-living adjustment affects pay for clerical, custodial, transportation, cafeteria and other support staff and will have recurring budget implications for the district.
The minutes do not specify whether the 3% raise is retroactive, when it will appear in paychecks, or how the district will fund the increase; those details were not provided in the record.
