Staff at USD 445 will see a pay increase this year.

 

At last night's Coffeyville School Board meeting, salary increases were approved for administration, directors, support staff and classified staff.  Business Manager Michael Speer says the most notable increase will be for classified staff, with a $1.50 per hour increase in pay.

 

Classified staff includes those who provide non-teaching services to students, teachers and the public. In addition to approving the salary increases, the board approved final budget transfers and closed out the fiscal year for the district's nearly $19 million operating budget.

 

In other business, approval was given to purchase Chromebooks for the CES library totaling just over $19,000.
