Teachers' pay raises delayed until after wage freeze
William Sundermeyer of Marion, regional service representative for the Illinois Education Association, says teacher salary increases will be retroactive to the school year start if legally allowable after the 90 day wage price freeze. The Du Quoin Education Association reports the salary schedule, which requires ratification, was agreed after two days of mediated talks and will be implemented retroactively when legal. Also, the opening of Williamson County Republican headquarters in Marion was postponed due to a county cleanup and will follow the county fair.
