The West Central School Board last week approved the classified employee salary and benefits for the school year.
Superintendent Don Street said the board approved the teacher contracts at the last meeting, but discussed teacher salaries on Thursday night.
“We went back and adjusted teacher salaries which are based upon the 2016-2017 evaluations which are based upon the ISTEP scores and the letter grades. So, we were able to make those financial adjustments,” said Street.
He mentioned that the salaries for this year were approved and will vary slightly the next school year.
“Our salary ranges are from $33,443 on up to a little over $59,000. For the 2018-2019 school year, our starting salary for new hires will be at $35,000. Those with more than 15 years of experience or more is $45,997.”
In addition, the principal contracts were also approved as presented.
