District plans boost in teacher pay at talks
Lawrence school district and the Lawrence Education Association continue negotiations with compensation as the focus. Administration proposals include additional district funds on top of a $500 one time December pay raise, while the union seeks $1,500 raises for 900+ licensed educators and higher health insurance contributions. The district reports possible costs of at least $3 million next year plus available savings of over $6 million to help salaries and benefits. Negotiations begin at 5:30 p.m. at district headquarters.
