Trustees grant pay hike for secretaries continues

The school board approves a six percent raise for secretaries, with a proposed extra six percent hike to reduce inequities in pay. The plan raises overall district costs by about $19,000, funded partly by maintaining the tax rate around $1.48 and offset by a six cent cut in debt service tax, driven by a larger tax base. Trustee Wahrmund and Lippman opposed the additional raise while President Mrs. Karl W. Opryshek led the push backed by Supt. George H. Gentry and the secretaries association.
