Midway ISD superintendent previews 2% general pay increase for staff
Summary
Superintendent Chris Allen told the board the district is considering a preliminary 2% general pay increase for all employees, calling it in line with past increases and aimed at keeping salaries competitive; he emphasized the proposal is under discussion and not finalized.
Chris Allen, superintendent of MIDWAY ISD, said the district presented preliminary plans to the board for a 2% general pay increase for all employees and described the proposal as "about on par with what we have typically done." Allen said the increase would apply to all staff as a general pay increase and that the district is in a position to have a conversation about compensation this year.
The superintendent framed the 2% figure as intended to keep MIDWAY ISD competitive with surrounding districts, saying the amount "still keeps us super competitive with those who are around us." He described the plan as preliminary and noted the board was being briefed on the district's "preliminary thoughts" rather than a finalized decision.
District officials did not provide specifics on the funding source, effective date, or a formal board vote on the increase during the brief. The superintendent said the matter is being discussed at the board level and that more formal consideration would follow.
