2/19M <br />9U <br />ORANGE COUNTY SCHOOL <br />DIFFERENTIATED SALARY.PROPOSAL <br />FEBRUARY 19, 1990 <br />Career status bonuses pending availability of funds <br />will be frozen at the 1989 -1990 yearly rate for 1990 -1991. <br />*If the state salary schedule remains in effect, base <br />salaries are projected to increase over this time period. <br />The proposal for freezing bonuses will ensure that no one <br />will receive a decrease in gross pay in 1990 -1991. <br />Accordingly, persons who apply and achieve Career <br />Status I or II at the end of 1989 -1990 will be paid the <br />bonus rate (at their designated years of experience) based <br />on the 1989 -1990 schedule. <br />Because the proposed state salary schedule for 1991- <br />1992 has an additional 3% increase built in for teachers <br />starting their fourth year of employment (the point where <br />Career Status I is normally achieved), those teachers who <br />are awarded Career Status I from that year on (1991 -1992) <br />will not be receiving any additional "bonus" payment. <br />Employees who have attained Career Status I and who are <br />receiving the related Career Status I bonus not later than <br />school year 1990 -1991 will continue receiving a Career <br />Status I bonus through school year 1993 -1994 only. <br />Beginning in 1994 -1995, no employees will be receiving bonus <br />dollars for Career Status I. <br />In an effort to fund the Orange County Schools proposed <br />Differentiated Pay Plan, we recommend that these items be <br />implemented in the following order: <br />1. Request flexible funding from other sources: <br />A. Unused Career Development substitute pay. <br />B. Newly created 1990 -1993 Basic Education <br />Program enhancement positions (while <br />protecting positions which will be added <br />to reduce class size). <br />C. Request line items in County Budget to <br />assist Career Development funding. <br />2. Reduction of Career Development Staff by one. <br />3. Summer School Employment - eliminated. <br />4. Printing - eliminated. <br />5. Reduction of Staff Development funds and /or <br />eliminate workshop expenses. <br />
