What else?
PISD is considering a 3% raise for teachers, nurses and librarians for the 2025-25 school year. District staff recommended the pay bump during an April 2 board of trustees meeting, and the board will have to make the final decision in June.
The starting salary for first year teachers would also increase by $1,200, to $62,200 annually.
The current teacher pay scale moves in $400 increments as teachers gain experience in the district. District leaders are proposing raising the pay scale to $450 increments to honor the teachers who have stayed with the district, Kindle said.
District officials are also expecting to increase auxiliary salaries, such as maintenance positions, to remain competitive in the job market, Kindle said. Bus driver salaries would increase by $1 to be $25 per hour in the 2025-26 school year, which is estimated to cost the district $376,616.
