The San Marcos Consolidated ISD Board of Trustees will consider a pay increase for all hourly workers during its September regular board meeting.
The trustees will consider increasing all hourly workers pay by $2 until the board discontinues the temporary raise. The agenda item comes after the board voted 4-2 against paying time and a half for paraprofessionals and auxiliary employees in a special-called meeting on Aug. 2, citing long-term budget concerns.
The trustees will also discuss and take possible action to participate in a joint election with Guadalupe County on Nov. 3. SMCISD Board of Trustees Single-Member District 1, which includes Guadalupe County, is up for election during the upcoming November election. The election, which was postponed from May until November because of the COVID-19 pandemic, will be between incumbent Miguel Arredondo and challenger James Bryant, Jr. Arredondo will also appear on the ballot for City of San Marcos Mayor.
