Supt. Dennis made a recommendation for a one-time payment to all current full-time employees in the amount of $500 for prospective services due to the social and emotional support for students and staff impacted by the stresses of the Covid-19 Pandemic.
Dennis said this bonus is to show employees their services provided are valued for students, parents and other stakeholders in our community.
The recommendation was approved and all full-time employees will receive a $500 bonus in February. A full-time employee is defined as only those which the school program pays a PEEHIP allocation. PEEHIP stands for Public Education Employees Health Insurance Plan.
