School district offers modified tenure and pay raise
Lawrence district negotiators proposed just over 1 million dollars in new funds to raise teacher pay and absorb higher health benefits costs while preserving administrative due process rights in a modified form. The district would align teachers with administrators by allowing appeals to the school board rather than an independent hearing officer, arguing decision making rests with the board. Kansas lawmakers repealed tenure rights for K 12 teachers this year, except for community colleges and technical schools, amid protests and union activism.
