An arbitrator sided with the Marion School Board on base pay, accepted teachers on a salary step policy, and adopted a fact finder’s recommendation on extracurricular pay. The report requires a $11,500 base, retains current steps, adds a $5 monthly family health coverage, and sets extracurricular pay at 10.95 percent. The agreement takes effect next year.
