Summary

The board approved a pay increase for summer-school staff: $50 per hour for certified teachers and $25 per hour for teacher assistants and classified staff.

The Orangeburg County School District Board voted April 8 to raise summer-school pay to $50 per hour for certified teachers and $25 per hour for teacher assistants and classified staff.

Curriculum and instruction staff said the district reviewed the budget and determined it could increase compensation for summer work. The recommendation was presented as an action item and a board member moved to accept the administration’s recommendation; the motion was seconded and carried.

The board did not specify a dedicated funding source for the adjustment during the public discussion. Trustees were told the change will be included in summer school staffing plans and the administration will proceed with implementing the revised rates.
