Board discusses athletic-director supplement and gifted coordinator pay; decision delayed to a future meeting
Summary
Board members and staff discussed restoring a supplement for the high-school athletic director and adding a prorated supplement for a gifted coordinator. No formal vote was taken; the item was moved to a future agenda for further discussion.
Overton County school staff and board members discussed adding a supplement for a high-school athletic director position and providing a prorated supplement to a staff member who absorbed the gifted coordinator duties. The board did not take formal action; members directed staff to place the matter on a future agenda for further discussion.
One staff presenter described the workload for the high-school athletic director position and said the role includes responsibilities beyond the countywide elementary athletic duties, noting game administration, referee coordination and out-of-school duties. The presenter said comparable supplements found in other districts ranged from roughly $4,500 to $6,000 and recommended the board consider a figure that recognized the extra work.
Board members and staff discussed that the countywide athletic coordinator differs from the TWSAA/TSSAA high-school role and that duties and time commitments are greater at the high-school level. The presenter also asked the board to consider a supplement for a staff member who had absorbed the gifted coordinator responsibilities after the previous coordinator took a principalship; the suggestion was to use the certified supplement pay scale and prorate the coordinator supplement based on days worked.
Several board members asked staff to gather more data and to reopen the item at the next meeting. The transcript records no motion to adopt a supplement amount at this meeting.
