Jefferson Parish School Board approved a 5% pay raise for certified teachers ($2,500), non-certified teachers ($2,000), and other staff ($500) as part of the $630m budget for the upcoming school year. The raises were funded by savings from school closures and consolidations, improving staff retention and making the district more competitive. The increases are permanent, unlike a one-time $2,000 state stipend.
