Board reviews salary comparisons and new benefits; district highlights $10/month daycare and full-family insurance
Summary
The board reviewed regional salary comparisons for certified and classified staff and heard about recent contract changes that include district-funded medical premiums (employee + family), HRA/HSA options and a daycare program used by dozens of staff for $10/month.
A board tools presentation compared entry-level, mid-career and maximum-step salaries for certified and classified staff across the region, and outlined negotiated contract language for classified employees. The presenter said the district will fully fund medical insurance premiums for enrolled staff and their families under the new classified contract, and noted 63 staff signed up for plan 5 with HRA while 29 opted out and received a $500 stipend.
The presenter highlighted a district daycare program offered at $10 per month: 12 classified and 14 certified staff used the daycare this year (serving 31 staff-member children total), which the presenter contrasted with typical regional daycare rates of $1,000 to $2,300 per month. The board discussed recruiting and retention implications and follow-up requests for more detailed step-1 hiring comparisons.
