Summary

Trustees amended an original $250 stipend proposal for paraeducators working during specials to $750 for the semester, saying the higher amount better reflects hours and responsibilities; the amended motion passed.

The board considered a stipend for paraeducators who provide special services during specials. A trustee argued the originally listed $250 did not reflect the work involved over an 84-day period and moved to increase the stipend to $750; the motion was amended and seconded and the board approved the $750 amount for the semester.

Trustees said the higher stipend is more commensurate with the hours and quality of work paraeducators provide. The motion to amend and to approve the revised stipend passed by voice vote; no roll-call tally was recorded in the minutes.
