2 Effective Leadership Goal 3: The AISD will recruit and retain the most effective people by rewarding excellence and providing opportunities for continual growth. Effective Leadership Strategy: Engage a human resource consultant or consulting firm to review the District s current salary structure to ensure compensation is properly aligned within the system and to conduct an external market analysis of salaries to ensure the District s salaries are competitive. 2

3 Background More than 10 years since last salary market study Teachers, Librarians & Nurses beginning teacher salaries increased to $50,000 Equity adjustments given for teachers with 1 20 years experience teacher pay is above market average Salary market study Board directed during budget adoption process that district contract for a salary market study for all positions Salary Market Study Report Ann Patton, Sr. Compensation Consultant Texas Association of School Boards 3

4 Arlington ISD Pay Plan Review January 29, 2014 Ann R. Patton, CCP Sr. Compensation Consultant Kim Scambilis Compensation Consultant Pay Study Calendar September Board approval September 25, 2013 Initial meeting with administration October Management interviews December 4, 2013 Video conference update December 17, 2013 Draft review January 16, 2014 Video conference January 23, 2014 Board Finance Committee January 29, 2014 Board presentation 4

5 Project Activities Initial planning and data collection Assess competitive pay levels for common jobs Used salary survey data Evaluate job assignments and recommend pay classifications Build pay range structures Design implementation plan Conduct draft review meetings and prepare final report Overall Findings Previous increases in the teacher pay schedule have caused compression with others in that career path. Counselor pay schedule is lower than master s degree teachers and is slightly regressive Qualified candidates are rejecting offers due to salary. Most managers reported concerns with administrative support, paraprofessional and manual trades pay. 5

6 Overall Findings Degree and licensure stipends are paid to non exempt staff in lieu of market competitive pay. Licensure is required for some skilled jobs Purpose and intent of stipends need to be reevaluated Pay schedules have not been reviewed in over 10 years. Procedures for calculating offers to new hires, promotions and other employment actions require review. Lack of market competitive pay has caused negative morale. Time records for non exempt workers are kept at the campus/department instead of central office.
