[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It should be pointed out that this favors employees at the lower steps as a percentage pay increase. Higher paid teachers are often getting a pay raise that works out to be less than inflation just in the last year. We are still 15% paid lower that 15 years ago once you adjust for inflation. Pension and benefits is more costly to the county since the state started require school systems to put more into the pensions.[/quote] Note also that higher step teachers get more total pay for the same hours, and lower step teachers are getting paid less (adjusted for inflation) than higher step teachers were paid when they were lower step. If you aren't getting paid what you are worth, the problem isn't in the pay of teachers getting paid less than you;th problem is in the total budget. [/quote]
