Staff proposes 3% midpoint increase and higher substitute pay for 2026-27
Summary
A presenter recommended a 3% midpoint raise (scenario 1) for 2026-27 with a one-time loyalty incentive tied to enrollment, proposed starting teacher pay at $61.05, and recommended raising certified substitute pay by $10 and paraprofessional substitutes by $5.
District staff presented three compensation scenarios and recommended the 3% midpoint option for 2026-27. "So what we are proposing is, the 3%, which is scenario 1, with the 3% GPI increase for the 2627 school year," the presenter said, framing the raise as both recognition of staff and a strategic move for recruitment and retention.
The presenter said the proposed starting teacher pay would be $61.05, with midpoint adjustments across pay families and an average midpoint increase equating to roughly a $1,900 increase for teaching staff. She also described a one-time loyalty incentive that would be paid only if enrollment at a specified October snapshot meets the district's threshold.
