THERE IS NO "5% RAISE".[/quote]
I hate to break it to you but in the real world "cost of living adjustments" DO count as a raise.  3% COLA + 2% Step Increase = 5% raise.[/quote]

Perhaps you need to do a bit of research before you post.  The COLA being given to teachers on late October is 1.5%, NOT 3%.  Furthermore, as of July 1, teachers are now 2 steps behind where they should be.  As of late October, they will be one step behind.[/quote]
You both are wrong.  COLA is 2% in 2015 (see [url]http://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/uploadedFiles/departments/associationrelations/refresh2014/Key%20changes%20in%20Compensation%20and%20Ben(2).pdf[/url]).  Also, Step Increases are 3% (or more) see [url]http://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/uploadedFiles/departments/ersc/employees/pay/schedules/salary_schedule_current(2).pdf[/url]

So most MCPS teachers are receiving AT LEAST 5% increases this year.  If a teacher is maxed out, good for you.  You're making $105,189 per year.  Maybe you can add a coaching position or something.[/quote]
