Scottsdale teachers offered $1000 across the board
Scottsdale school officials proposed a $1000 across the board raise for about 1300 teachers for 1975-76, costing $1.2 million. The move freezes horizontal and vertical salary movements, drawing opposition from the Scottsdale Federation of Teachers and the Scottsdale Education Association which insist on a 15.4 percent cost of living increase. The district says the plan is fair under budget limits and will not hire new teachers next year.
