Frederick County Teachers Seek Salary Incentive Plan
A report proposing a new four‑point salary scale for Frederick County teachers would raise pay by about 66,800 dollars annually. The plan, labeled a salary incentive by the Frederick County Teachers Association, targets higher pay for advanced degrees and rewards professional competence while tying top salaries to experience. The proposal would lift classroom teachers’ pay from a statewide total of 2,804,200 to roughly 2,891,000 dollars annually, with four men on the salary committee presenting it to the Board of Education, alongside new appointments and resignations in the county system.
