District board seeks raise and revised layoff rules
Metro-Iowa reports district Business Manager Jeff Humiston says the board's initial proposal would raise costs by 1.9 percent or 63000 dollars, about 82 percent of anticipated state aid. The MEA seeks dental insurance and 75 percent district paid family premiums while administrators receive full family coverage. The board also wants salary base raises and shifts to a point-based layoff system considering seniority training endorsements and principals' judgments.
