Roswell teachers face salary scales and newspaper duties debate
The Roswell School District proposes a broad teacher pay scale with basic salaries from 5,400 to higher levels tied to degrees and years of experience. Extra incentives are planned for teachers aiding in non classroom activities, including student newspapers. The district eyes 336 teachers next year amid a projected enrollment drop from Walker Air Force Base closure and outlines funding from local, county, state, and reduced federal sources. Congress calls for training flight relocations. WAFB closure could open the base for airline pilot training and Pan Am interest is noted.
