Leander ISD presents 2026-27 compensation plan with 0% across‑the‑board recommendation
Summary
Leander ISD administration recommended board approval of a market-aligned 2026-27 compensation plan that places pay scales to market with a 0% across‑the‑board increase, and asked authority to issue a one-time retention payment if finances permit.
Leander ISD administration asked the Board of Trustees to approve the district's 2026‑27 compensation plan on May 7, 2026, proposing pay‑scale adjustments based on an independent TASB market review while recommending a 0% across‑the‑board (ATB) pay increase because of projected budget constraints. "Administration recommends the Board approve the compensation plan to include all pay scales adjustment with 0% across-the-board increase for all employees for the 2026-27 school year," the agenda packet states.
The packet includes detailed salary scales for teachers, support staff, leadership, police, and temporary employees; for example, the teacher/librarian hiring scale shows a 0‑year bachelor's minimum of $57,500 and a 30+ year rate of $73,409. Administration said the adjustments reflect a TASB third‑party analysis intended to keep the district competitive in the regional labor market. The plan also reserves the Board's right to amend compensation and benefits after the fiscal year begins if required by law or administrative rule.
Board action was requested to approve the pay scales and the administrative authorities described in the packet; the agenda included a sample motion for the Board to adopt the plan as presented. The agenda text does not record a vote or the Board's final decision.
