By the time you figure anything out, they’ll have already given themselves a raise, dope.

Aren’t you lovely? So you are just here to make s h I t up. Got it.

The full text of the proposed raise got posted on the agenda for the School Board’s meeting tomorrow night over the weekend. No one is making anything up but you are clearly too stupid to acknowledge that.

It didn't just get posted. It has been posted. You just now figured it out. I've known about this for over a week because I read the agendas.

Not everyone has time to read everything on the SB Boarddocs.

DP, if you want to stay informed then you have to read them,

Yup. Can’t complain if you don’t try to stay informed.

We are informed and this has not been approved yet. They need to put an end to this graft now.

It won’t go into effect until the next school board is sworn in.

Personally, I’m in favor of it. It’s a thankless job that requires countless hours. Who would you expect to run? How could someone hold down a full-time job AND do this? If the salary isn’t raised, you’re only going to have candidates that are wealthy.

I'm more concerned about the money they waste on lawyers, consultants, and vendors. Funds that do nothing to help teachers and their students.

Also, those SB meetings with all their resolutions, etc, are getting out of hand. I don't know if it really matters that they honor a group. It is just politics to them.

In fact, it seems to me that every group has been honored except for Christians.

Exactly. They have done nothing useful to benefit the children. In fact, they seem hell bent on sinking our schools.

It should be a part-time position and they should be meet at night to provide community oversight. They meet constantly to justify their importance but they accomplish very little and, to the extent they do anything, it’s mostly meddling with staff decisions to advance their own personal agendas. That’s not going to change, and they’ll feel even more empowered to be useless busybodies if they make almost 2x as much.

They are like a bunch of PTA moms who complain they do all the work but then go out of their way to schedule meetings at 10 AM and 1 PM so working parents can’t participate.

I understand Karl Frisch has no marketable skills or a college degree, but we don’t need to pay him over $60K to ignore his duties, waste taxpayer money, and parade with drag queens every spring.

Exactly. It’s OUTRAGEOUS.

Why are they giving themselves a raise when they spent less than 8 hours in aggregate this year even discussing academics, Meren has a history of leaving meetings earlier, and Gamarra isn't even there most of the time.

Well, they will still be making a lot more than me, a classroom teacher with 15 years experience, an Ivy League education, a masters, and a PhD.

I mean, once they approve their 77 percent raise.

It’s unconscionable. You should be making more and they are simply pigs who need to be doing less, not more.

What step are you on? Step 12 is $93k.

I don’t believe this. They would make 60,404 after the raise. I think that’s in line with a new teacher salary.

No they won't. A teacher with a PhD and 15 years experiences makes 93k. Do you work in FCPS?
