Board approves $800,000 referendum appropriation for staff stipends
Summary
The board approved an $800,000 appropriation from the referendum fund to provide stipends for certified and non‑certified staff in preparation for pay‑raise and stipend approvals next month; the request was advertised and approved by voice vote.
At its November meeting the Franklin Community School Corp. board approved an $800,000 additional appropriation from the district’s referendum fund intended to provide stipends for both certified and non‑certified staff.
An administrator told the board, "Tonight, I am requesting an $800,000 additional appropriation for the referendum fund. This will be using some of that fund balance to provide stipends for both the certified staff and the non certified staff." The administrator said the appropriation had been advertised in compliance with district regulations and that the appropriation was being made in preparation for pay‑raise and stipend approvals expected next month.
The board moved, seconded and approved the action by voice vote with members responding "aye" and no opposition recorded on the transcript.
Administrators did not provide a detailed breakdown of how the $800,000 would be divided between certified and non‑certified employees during the meeting; they said the stipend and pay‑raise details will be presented at the next meeting for formal approval.
