Fringe benefits vs pay raise debated by school board
January 18 1977 fringe benefits appear more valuable than a straight pay gain. The General Assembly authorized retirement plan funding only if paid in full, making six percent across the board rise cheaper by about 433 000 versus 261 000 for retirement plus 192 817 for salary scale increases. The board approved make up days, bus start efforts, trespass actions, and a 15000 grant for an IQ 80 to 100 student pilot program. The district faced weather caused closures and a water main break in Front Royal.
