Pocatello School Board ratifies 2024–25 teacher agreement, approves 1.5% pay increases for multiple employee groups
Summary
At a special meeting the Pocatello School District No. 25 Board of Trustees ratified a negotiated agreement with the teachers’ association for 2024–25 and approved 1.5% compensation increases for administrators, classified administrators and classified employees.
The Pocatello School District No. 25 Board of Trustees ratified a negotiated agreement with the district’s teachers’ bargaining unit for the 2024–25 school year and approved 1.5% pay adjustments for administrators, classified administrators and classified employees at a brief special meeting.
The Chair opened the meeting “I hereby call this meeting to order” and said the meeting’s purpose was to consider ratifying the negotiated agreement and to set compensation levels for several employee groups. A speaker identified in the transcript as Dr how reported that members had reviewed negotiation points in executive session and that the negotiation sessions had been streamed live.
A board member moved to ratify the negotiated agreement; another board member seconded the motion. The Chair put the question to a voice vote and announced the motion passed. The board then considered separate motions to set pay levels for three employee groups. A board member moved that the board set compensation levels for administrators and the superintendent “with a movement of 1.5% as presented”; that motion was seconded and passed. The board followed with similar motions to set compensation for classified administrators and for classified employees, each described in the meeting as a 1.5% movement; both motions were seconded and the Chair announced each had passed.
Votes were taken by voice; the meeting transcript does not record individual vote tallies or named aye/nay votes. The actions taken at the meeting were limited to ratifying the negotiated agreement and approving the compensation adjustments; no amendments, roll-call tallies, or budget detail were recorded in the transcript.
