Your Opinion: School Board Should Reconsider Substitute Pay Cut

Franklin-school-board-officeBy Mark Fitzgerald, Somerset

Dear Board Members;

For those present at the board meeting (Oct. 17), you heard from numerous substitute teachers in the district regarding a recent decision to reduce their daily per diem compensation.  The change for many caused their daily rate to be reduced from $110/day to $95/day or $85/day respectively.  This amounts to a 14 percent and 23 percent reduction, with very little advance notification.
