Palacios ISD board rejects then approves amended 2025–26 compensation plan with $1,500 retention allotment
Summary
Trustees first voted down the 2025–26 Compensation Plan, then approved an amended plan that adds a $1,500 Local Teacher Retention Allotment (HB2) and references the 0–2 years salary scale for Teachers, Librarians and RNs.
At agenda item 3B, Board Member Haley Garcia moved to approve the 2025–26 Compensation Plan "as presented," with Brian Busby seconding; the motion failed on a recorded 0–7 vote (all trustees Nay).
Following that vote, Garcia moved an amended compensation plan that specifically noted the Teacher, Librarian, and Nurse (RN) Salary Scale for 0–2 years of service and included a Local Teacher Retention Allotment (HB2) of $1,500. Brian Busby seconded the amended motion; the board approved it unanimously, 7–0. The motion on the record was: "I make a motion to approve the amended 2025-26 Compensation Plan noting the Teacher, Librarian, and Nurse (RN) Salary Scale 0-2 Years of service Local Teacher Retention Allotment (HB2) being $1500.00."
The transcript records the motions and roll-call votes but does not provide the full text of the compensation schedule, ranges for other years of service, or the total budgetary cost of the amendment. The specific dollar figure recorded in the meeting for the Local Teacher Retention Allotment is $1,500; any broader fiscal impact, funding source or net effect on the district's budget is not specified in the meeting record.
