Board offers Salary Option B tied to Idaho Career Ladder
Summary
Under Salary Option B the Board proposed that base pay for professional employees be set to the Idaho Career Ladder base cell for which each qualifies, with additional placement for verified credits or degrees submitted by the established deadline.
Salary Option B, presented by the Board, ties 2026–27 base pay for professional employees to the Idaho Career Ladder: the base cell for which an employee qualifies would determine the base salary, and additional placement would be awarded for credits or degrees verified by the district before the credit submission deadline. The proposal leaves credit verification and placement mechanics to district processes.
The Board indicated willingness to use the State career-ladder placement rather than a step-and-lane freeze. The NPEA asked additional clarifying questions and subsequently caucused; the minutes record that the Board conditioned insurance coverage on acceptance of Option B later in the meeting but Option B itself was not ratified.
