(KLZA)-- The Humboldt-Table Rock – Steinauer School Board finalized a number of personnel matters when they met last week approving contract extensions and pay raises for administrators.
The Board extended the contracts by a year for Superintendent Sherri Edmundson, Humboldt site Principal Lisa Othmer and Table Rock site Principal Kari Lottman. The superintendent contract is for two years with the Principals contracts being for one year
The Board also approved a $2,500 pay raise for both principals and a $4,000 pay increase for the 2016-17 school year for Superintendent Edmundson.
The Board accepted the retirement resignation from Title I teacher Anne Maschman. Voted to advertise for a speech pathologist and approved a classified salary scheduled.
The classified salary schedule will take into consideration length of service and education. For the 2016-17 school year all classified staff members will receive at least a 10-cent per hour pay raise.
The Board also voted to pay the penalty for one year for not offering a health insurance plan that covers employees on a nine-month contract. The penalty amount is not known at this time. It will cover approximately 25 employees.
Board members felt it would be better to pay the penalty the first year and see what happens with the Affordable Healthcare Act when a new President takes office in January..
HTRS has been awarded a Sixpence grant in the amount of $75,000. A half-time position will be created for the first year to work with children not yet old enough for school and their parents.
