Perryton ISD board approves FY2027 salary schedule, stipends after discussion; vote 6-1
Summary
Trustees approved the district’s recommended stipends and the FY2027 salary schedule, noting prior teacher one-time increases and a $1/hr raise for non‑certified staff; the motion passed 6-1.
Perryton ISD trustees voted 6-1 to approve the recommended stipends and salary schedules for fiscal year 2027.
A presenter described the compensation package as part of the district’s budget process, covering non‑certified positions (maintenance, cafeteria staff, paraprofessionals, office staff) and certified personnel (teachers, coaches, administrators). The presenter credited Mrs. Maras with putting together the package and noted that in the past year teachers received one-time amounts of $4,000 and $8,000 and non‑certified staff received a $1-per-hour increase. "Mrs. Maras has done a lot of work on this," the presenter said, calling the package a reasonable plan that fits state expectations and market rates.
After a motion and second, the board approved the recommended stipends and salary schedules for the next fiscal year by a 6-1 vote. The transcript records no amendment to the package; the dissenting vote was recorded but not named in the transcript excerpt.
Trustees discussed the timing and noted this compensation package will inform budget planning over the summer. Staff said the approved schedule will drive the majority of the district’s budget as certified values are finalized and the administration prepares the proposed budget for August public hearings and eventual adoption.
The board also discussed scheduling additional budget workshops and the tax-rate public hearing that must precede adoption of the budget.
