[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ACPS employee premium costs are shown on this chart (24 pays):  https://www.acps.k12.va.us/cms/lib/VA01918616/Centricity/Domain/804/benefits/open-enrollment/active-rates-fy2019.pdf
FCPS employee premium costs are shown on the chart (10 pays): https://www.fcps.edu/sites/default/files/media/pdf/2018%20Employee%20Premiums_0.pdf

Based on the charts, an ACPS teacher pays $150.80 each pay for a family using Kaiser Permanente. That's $3,619/year. A FCPS teacher pays $464.75 each pay for KP family plan. That's $4,647/year. For an individual it looks like the teacher working for FCPS pays a little bit less each year.

ACPS retiree healthcare is slightly less than FCPS:

12 years with a MA in ACPS: $79,674
12 years with a MA in FCPS: $73,952

15 years with a MA in ACPS: $87,484
15 years with a MA in FCPS: $80,353[/quote]

Thanks, PP.  I hadn't looked at the salary scales closely before.  Because we got so far behind in steps I will actually make more if I move even though technically FCPS pays less.  Interesting.[/quote]

And those are old scales for FCPS.  The new ones for next year are out and next year, 12 years with a MA in FCPS is $77302 while 15 years is $84421.  Given that there was no COLA given in ACPS from 2016 to 2017, my guess is that it won't be long before FCPS has caught up or even surpassed ACPS.[/quote]
