The Grand Island school board on Thursday night approved a teaching contract with the Grand Island Education Association, whose members have already approved the contract.

Virgil Harden, business manager for the Grand Island Public Schools, said the indexed salary base was moved up by $1,010, which is a 3.3 percent increase.

Harden said a first-year teacher right out of college would receive $31,400, plus a flat non-indexed salary of $1,777 plus district-paid, employee-only health and dental coverage. He said the $1,777 plus the employee-only health and dental coverage is worth a total of $7,500.


Harden said a person at the top end of the salary schedule, which would be a teacher with a master's degree plus 45 hours of additional college education and 11 years of teaching experience, would receive $66,254. That teacher also would receive a non-indexed salary of $7,500. The teacher could take that $7,500 as straight salary, or they could use the $7,500 to buy health and dental coverage through the school district.

The $7,500 non-indexed salary is available only to teachers hired prior to May 30, 2008.  Full Story
