The Jackson-Madison County Board of Education approved a fixed alternative salary schedule for teachers as presented at the work session.

A board member moved to accept the fixed alternative salary schedule; another board member seconded the motion. The board approved the schedule on a voice vote.

Why it matters: the board-approved salary schedule becomes the compensation framework for teachers under the district’s Local Teacher Salary (LTS) alternative plan and may affect recruitment and retention.

The motion was presented as part of consent business following a previous work session where the schedule was reviewed. There was no extended discussion recorded on the floor before the vote.
