The Hays
CISD Board of Trustees on Monday approved pay
raises for all employees, contingent upon federal
stimulus funds agreeing with legislative mandates.
The motion regarding teachers, counselors, nurses,
and librarians included an $825 per year pay
raise, plus a “step increase.” The salary
placement schedule for these employees is based on
“steps” or years of experience. The step
increase means the employees move up one step on
the pay “ladder.” The motion also included a
$825 increase for speech pathologists contingent
upon funding. Read

nights with appropriate fanfare and celebration.
That alone is saying a lot, given all four light
poles at Shelton Stadium had been removed two
months ago.
