Rainier board adopts three‑year step schedule for non‑represented staff
Summary
The board unanimously approved a proposed three‑year salary step schedule for non‑represented employees to improve competitiveness and support budget planning, voting 7–0 to adopt the change.
The Rainier School Board unanimously approved a proposed three‑year step schedule for non‑represented employees, a plan the superintendent said is intended to make non‑represented positions more competitive in the Northwest Regional ESD labor market.
Superintendent Holloway explained the schedule would apply across fiscal years 2025–26 through 2027–28 and showed comparative ranges for the region; he said the proposal also addresses some existing under‑compensation among district employees. "This is designed to help folks move up and to be in a competitive and fairly compensated position," Holloway said.
Board members discussed timing and the benefit of adopting the schedule before completing budget work so that projections reflect the proposed steps. A motion to adopt the schedule was made and seconded; the board approved the measure by unanimous voice vote (7–0).
The superintendent said implementing the schedule will be incorporated into upcoming budget preparations and will require administrative steps to apply new pay ranges to non‑represented employees.
