Board approves 130 dollar yearly raise for 196 teachers

Baytown school board on Monday night approved a 130 per year pay hike for 196 of the district s 340 teachers effective in September. The board also opened a plan for a more intensive salary study and possible revision of the scale before 1965 66. The Baytown Education Association pressed for a 200 across the board increase. Dr Joe Horeczy proposed a 150 yearly rise for district teachers with master s degrees and 13 or more years experience. The committee favored a career based study and merit considerations, with any 3200 across the board hike deemed unaffordable. The 29 400 cost would come from the contingency fund, already strained by Robe rt E Lee High School costs. The board unanimously approved Horeczy s proposals and the welfare committee pledged further study comparing Gulf Coast districts.
