Teacher Pay Plan Adopted by San Gabriel Board
The San Gabriel Board of Education adopted a new teacher incentive pay plan on the recommendation of Dr. William Berek. It aims to stimulate development of educational projects and techniques to improve district education, with periodic reviews by the superintendent and board revisions as needed. Oslo Mueller reported improved group intelligence test results, while Dr. Alfred J. Williams outlined progress toward reduced class sizes and expanded reading programs aided by volunteers. The district seeks full school libraries and cross cataloguing, and компьютерized test results will not impede plans for gifted students.
