Scurry-Rosser ISD board approves 2.25% midpoint raise, $500 longevity bonus plan
Summary
The Scurry-Rosser ISD Board on April 20 approved a compensation plan that includes a 2.25% midpoint salary increase for 2026–27 and a new longevity bonus of $500 at 10, 20 and 30 years, measures board leaders said aim to retain staff.
The Scurry-Rosser ISD Board of Trustees on April 20 approved an updated compensation plan that includes a 2.25% midpoint salary increase for the 2026–2027 school year and a new longevity bonus program.
Superintendent Dr. Blaylock told trustees the midpoint increase would translate to roughly a $1,300 raise for classroom teachers under the district’s pay scales. The plan also establishes a $500 longevity payment for employees at the 10-, 20- and 30-year service marks. "The updated compensation plan for this year includes a proposed 2.25% midpoint salary increase for the 2026-2027 school year," the superintendent said during discussion.
Trustee Drew Sloan moved to approve the plan; the motion passed unanimously. Supporters said the adjustments are intended to help with recruitment and retention, while trustees acknowledged the change will factor into future budget planning. The board did not record additional budget line-item details in open session; the consent agenda earlier in the meeting included budget reports and investment information.
