South Carolina teachers seek 1400 pay hike in 1973-74
The South Carolina Education Association will ask the House Ways and Means Committee for an average $1400 teacher pay raise for fiscal 1973-74. State education officials say SC teachers are about one year behind the Southeastern average, with NC and GA salaries higher. The $1400 request, part of a $64 million education budget, surpasses the Budget and Control Board’s $738 million plan and follows NEA findings of pay gaps and system shortcomings.
