Branstad reforms allow optional teacher pay raises
Des Moines Democrats caution that a new proposal makes salary raises and career ladders optional for districts. With opt-in, districts could raise starting pay to 32000 and add lead mentor master roles, gaining about 300 more per student in state aid. Branstad supports the plan as a significant step forward while Democrats press for broader mandatory pay and career paths.
