Hays CISD approves amended employee compensation plan

The Hays CISD Board of Trustees voted unanimously to approve the 2021-2022 compensation plan on Monday.

District campuses will see a pay raise for crossing guards, lunchroom monitors and substitute teachers; a reduction to the number of service years a counselor needs to receive maximum salary; an adjustment to stipend amounts for bilingual teachers; and a paid COVID-19 sick leave for employees and their school-age children.

“This is another wonderful benefit we are giving to our employees,” Board Trustee Esperanza Orosco said. “We are an amazing employee-friendly organization.”
