8 <br /> Commissioner Price clarified that Tom Forcella is saying teachers would rather have <br /> higher salaries than a TA. She asked if this is true in CHCCS. <br /> Tom Forcella said he cannot speak for every teacher, and he said the goal is to get <br /> closer to the Wake County supplement. He said Teacher Assistants (TAs) are important, but if <br /> a teacher cannot afford to pay rent and buy food, the value of the TA drops. <br /> Commissioner Price asked if, as it relates to success in the classroom, it is more <br /> important for a teacher to have a high salary than a TA. <br /> Tom Forcella said he would prefer to have high quality teachers, and to do so, salaries <br /> must be competitive. <br /> Commissioner Jacobs asked if the budget proposal should be to reduce the number of <br /> TAs in order to pay for the increase in the teacher supplement. <br /> Tom Forcella said the best possible scenario is a high quality teacher with a TA in the <br /> classroom. He said to remain competitive teachers' salaries must be raised. <br /> Chair Barrett said CHCCS has larger class sizes in comparison to other districts across <br /> the State. He said this is due to there being a TA in the classroom. He said it is a balancing <br /> act. <br /> Todd LoFrese resumed the presentation: <br /> 2016-17 Certified Supplements - chart <br /> Salaries, Supplement, and ADVANCE <br /> • Teacher pay = 3 components <br /> — State base <br /> — Local supplement (eventually all at 16%) <br /> — ADVANCE differentials beginning 2017-18 <br /> • Budget Request for 2016-17: <br /> — Fund 16% Supplement <br /> — Remain competitive <br /> • 2017-18 and beyond: ADVANCE goal is to be cost neutral based on attrition <br /> Commissioner Dorosin clarified that the request is to make the supplement 16% across <br /> the board, regardless of experience, for new employees. He asked if the BOE approved the <br /> Project Advance program on April 7th <br /> Todd LoFrese said that vote was to increase the supplement from 12-16% for all new <br /> teachers, and for current teachers with zero to 19 years of experience. <br /> Commissioner Dorosin said the District has already committed to fund this raise, and <br /> asked if the BOCC does not fund the full request, will the BOE find the money somewhere in <br /> existing funds, at the expense of other projects. <br /> Todd LoFrese said yes, as this is the only way to stay competitive during recruitment <br /> season. <br /> Commissioner Dorosin said it seems that Wake County still has a graduated model, <br /> and asked if the new model in CHCCS will be graduated. <br /> Tom Forcella said no, but if the teachers earn the Advance dollars then CHCCS is <br /> competitive to Wake County. He said the speed at which teachers earn these dollars will vary. <br /> Commissioner Rich asked if teachers in Wake County must earn extra dollars. <br /> Tom Forcella said CHCCS teachers will all get 16%, but must earn additional dollars <br /> through professional development. <br /> Todd LoFrese said Wake County is a longevity-based system. <br />
