Board adopts updates to certified staff handbook, including insurance language
Summary
The board approved revisions to the 2025–26 certified staff handbook that include an insurance contribution cap (staff said the district will pay up to $700 per month for single coverage), adjustments tied to negotiated wage changes, and updates to supplemental salary schedule calculations.
The Treynor board approved revisions to the certified staff handbook, with staff describing changes to insurance, wage references, and the supplemental salary schedule.
A staff member told the board that "the district paying up to $700 per month for single coverage for health and major medical program." Staff also noted that Section 6 reflects wage and salary changes consistent with the recently negotiated agreement and that TSS (teacher supplemental salary) calculations will be included in total wages. The chair moved to approve the handbook as presented, the motion was seconded and the chair announced the motion carried after unanimous "aye" responses.
Why it matters: the handbook language governs staff benefits and the method for calculating total wages; the stated $700 monthly cap on single coverage affects the district's benefits costs and employees' out‑of‑pocket coverage assumptions.
