Summary

District officials said pay increases approved at a special meeting have been communicated to staff and that retroactive pay will appear on the March 27 paycheck; Superintendent Regenta Wimmer also reported students raised an estimated $81,000 during Charity Week.

Assistant Superintendent Lenny Hansen updated the board on compensation processing for the 2024-25 school year, saying the board approved pay increases at a special meeting the previous Thursday and that administration communicated details to staff the following day.

Hansen said personalized letters explaining the change will be distributed to staff and that new pay amounts and retroactive payments will be processed for the March 27 paycheck. He thanked negotiating representatives from the WBEA (West Bend Education Association), board liaisons and central office staff for helping expedite the process.

In her superintendent's report, Regenta Wimmer highlighted two community and district items: nominations due March 21 for the Volunteer Center of Washington County's Champions of Change awards and the Ralphs Education Foundation Awards and Support Employee of the Year awards. Wimmer also reported unofficial results from the district's Charity Week, saying student council and participating students and sponsors raised a record $81,000 to benefit multiple local charities; she credited Mr. Skip Clark and student leaders for organizing the effort.

This item was an informational report; no board action was taken during the meeting on compensation because the pay changes had been approved at the prior special meeting.
