Oneida Special School District board approves year‑end budget amendments and updates to pay scales
Summary
The board approved end‑of‑year budget amendments and a continuing budget resolution, and adopted updates to the 2627 certified and supplemental pay scales that add a longevity incentive and new staff/coach incentives; roll calls recorded three members voting yes.
The Oneida Special School District board approved end‑of‑year budget amendments, a continuing budget resolution and changes to its certified and supplemental 2627 pay scales during its meeting.
A motion to approve the end‑of‑year budget amendments passed on a roll call in which Dr. Nancy Williamson, Dr. Danny Cross and Dorothy Watson recorded affirmative votes. The board then approved a continuing budget resolution required to keep district operations moving until final budget receipts are confirmed.
Staff presented the updated 2627 certified pay scale and said it now includes a modest longevity incentive for employees with roughly 20 to 30 years of service; the presenter emphasized that eligible staff must have been employed by the Oneida Special School District for that span of years. "She's added a piece on there for longevity," a speaker said, noting the board supported the change. The board moved to approve the certified pay scale and the motion passed on roll call.
The board then discussed and approved the 2627 supplemental pay scale. The presenter said the revision increases costs (the transcript does not specify an amount) and is intended to incentivize coaching staff and to reward staff who obtain higher degrees (master's, bachelor's or EDS). Staff credited Allison and Zach for assistance developing the model. The motion to adopt the supplemental pay scale passed; the presiding speaker noted that all four budget items on the agenda were approved.
The meeting record does not name the members who formally moved or seconded each motion; roll call responses recorded in the transcript list Dr. Nancy Williamson, Dr. Danny Cross and Dorothy Watson as voting yes where shown. The transcript does not provide detailed dollar amounts or a full vote roster beyond the names recorded in roll call segments.
The approvals will allow the district to submit the continuing resolution to the state and implement the pay‑scale changes. The board proceeded to the directors' report after the votes.
