If you didn’t see the news about salary increases this morning in your email….

Last evening the Board approved the settlements between the District and its bargaining units for a 2.5% across the board salary increase.  The increase is retroactive to July1, 2016.  Employees will receive both the retroactive payment and the ongoing salary increase on March 31, 2017 in the form of two checks. The ongoing increase will be included in your regular paycheck and a separate check will include the retroactive payment.

Thank you.

Deo Persaud

Associate Superintendent
