Buna ISD board approves $1,100 longevity stipend for 2024–25 staff
Summary
At its July 21 special meeting, the Buna ISD Board of Trustees approved a $1,100 longevity stipend for professional and non‑certified staff who were employed on the final day of the 2024–25 school year. The motion passed unanimously.
The Buna Independent School District Board of Trustees voted July 21 to award a $1,100 longevity stipend to professional and non‑certified staff who were actively employed on the final day of the 2024–2025 school year. Trustee Sherri Hickerson made the motion, which Trustee Joey Broom seconded; the minutes record the vote as A-7, N-0.
Board members identified in the minutes as present when the motion passed were John Burt, Kevin Gomez, Russell DeLome, Joey Broom, Peggy Talmadge, Sherri Hickerson, William "Pete" Bond and Dr. Julie Motomura. The minutes record the stipend amount and the eligibility condition (actively employed on the final day of the 2024–2025 school year) but do not list how the payment will be processed or the budget line that will fund it. Those implementation details were not specified in the public minutes.
The board took the action after reconvening from an executive session held earlier in the meeting. The minutes do not show extended discussion on the stipend amount in open session; the motion passed by recorded vote. The district will need to confirm payroll timing and any tax/reporting treatment for the stipend in routine administrative follow-up.
