District presents 2.8% recommended adjustment to administrative salary ranges
Summary
The district presented a staff recommendation to adjust FY25 administrative salary ranges by 2.8% to maintain competitiveness and internal equity; the recommendation will return for board action per the board’s timeline.
An administration representative presented a recommendation at the Zion-Benton Twp HSD 126 board meeting on May 19 to adjust administrative salary ranges for FY25 by 2.8%, citing the consumer price index, peer districts and feedback from the finance committee.
The presenter said the 2.8% adjustment is intended to preserve internal equity and help the district attract candidates so that newly hired staff will not fall below current employees in the same category. The recommendation is part of the district's regular biennial salary-study process.
Board members discussed the recommendation briefly but did not vote on salary ranges at the May 19 meeting; the item was presented as new business and will follow the board’s standard approval timeline.
Context: the district said the adjustment is intended to keep administrative pay competitive with market conditions and to reflect committee feedback. The presentation referenced CPI and comparisons with other school districts; no specific peer-district salary figures were provided in the meeting record.
Next steps: administration will place the recommended salary ranges on a future agenda for board action consistent with the district’s established approval process.
