Princeton ISD board approves new teacher and staff salary scales
Summary
The Princeton ISD Board approved new salary scales for teachers and staff, including step increases of $1,000 for 0–2 years, $2,500 for 3–4 years, and $5,000 for teachers with five or more years, and hourly paraprofessionals at $1.00 per hour.
Julia Schmoker, Secretary of the Princeton ISD Board of Trustees, moved to approve new salary scales after the board returned to open session at 7:57 p.m. The approved scales provide teachers with one-time step increases of $1,000 for 0–2 years of service, $2,500 for 3–4 years, and $5,000 for those with five or more years; non-hourly professional staff receive $2,000; hourly staff and paraprofessionals were approved at $1.00 per hour. The motion was seconded by Starla Sharpe and passed unanimously.
Board members framed the change as a districtwide compensation adjustment to support recruitment and retention ahead of the 2025–26 school year. The approval was part of routine business taken after an executive session; the board did not record additional debate in the minutes. No additional implementation schedule or budget source was specified in the meeting record.
