Salary Advancement Assigned salary ranges normally contain 5 steps. Employees move through these steps on the basis of performance in the position hired/promoted into. Regular, full-time employees shall be eligible for salary step advancement consideration, as follows:
Salary Range a. At the beginning of the 2020-21 school year, the salaries of returning full-time teachers were between $36,500 to $61,000.
BASE PAY RATE The employee's basic hourly rate exclusive of overtime premium, shift premium, stability or any other special allowances.
Accrual Rate of Sick Leave With Pay Credits Full-time employees shall accrue eight (8) hours of sick leave with pay credits for each full month worked. Employees who work less than the full month but at least thirty-two (32) hours during the month shall accrue sick leave with pay on a pro rata basis for the month.
Advancement on Salary Schedule A worker will advance to the next step of the salary schedule on the first of the calendar month following the completion of the first six months of service, provided that he/she has received from the supervising manager a “good solid performance” rating. If the worker's supervising manager has not completed the evaluation and given a copy to the worker by the date when the worker is scheduled to receive the step increase, the increase shall be granted automatically. A classified hourly employee will advance to the second step of the salary schedule on the first of the calendar month following the completion of one year of service provided that he/she has received from the supervising manager a “good solid performance” rating. If the employee’s supervising manager has not completed the evaluation and given a copy to the employee by the date when the employee is scheduled to receive the step increase, the increase shall be granted automatically. A worker's first month of service will be the month during which he/she begins work providing he/she renders service before the 11th of the month. In all other cases, the worker's first month of service will be the calendar month following the date on which he/she begins work. A worker will advance to subsequent steps as he/she completes an additional year of service with a satisfactory rating on the annual evaluation. A classified hourly employee will advance to subsequent steps as he/she completes an additional two years of service with a satisfactory rating on the bi-annual evaluation. A year for 12-month workers is 12 months; for 11-month workers, 11 months; for 10-month workers, 10 months; for academic- day workers, the academic year. However, if the worker's supervising manager does not complete the annual evaluation and give a copy to the worker by the date the worker is scheduled to receive the step increase, the increase shall be granted automatically. A worker's anniversary date for salary increments shall be the anniversary of his/her first month of service after completing six months in a class. The anniversary date for a classified hourly employee shall be the date of hire in the classified hourly position. Any month during the worker's work year during which he/she is not in paid status will not count toward the anniversary date and will advance it by one month. A worker who demonstrates exceptional ability and diligence as a worker of the District may be given double advancement on recommendation of the supervising manager and with approval of the Director of Human Resources, the President, or the Chancellor.
Salary Ranges A. The salary ranges for classifications covered by this Agreement shall be those contained in Appendix D.
