Humble ISD School Board approves raises for all staff
 
Loading Image...
 
Humble ISD teacher pay is projected to be among the highest in the Houston area under a new compensation plan approved 5/24/22 by the Board of Trustees for the 2022-2023 school year. It is projected that Humble ISD’s starting teacher pay will be the 3rd highest out of 15 districts in the Houston area. Raising the starting salary and improvements to the hiring schedule benefits all teachers. New teachers who join the district are not paid more than existing teachers with the same years of experience.
 
Humble ISD is in a strong financial position because of high student enrollment as a fast-growth district as well as the community’s support of Bond 2022, which allows Humble ISD to continue paying for facility needs with bond funds while preserving the general fund for compensation and other district expenses.
 
Teachers' raises will be:
 
$2,600 for teachers with 1 to 6 years’ experience;
$2,650 for teachers with 7 to 14 years’ experience;
$2,700 for teachers with 15 to 21 years’ experience
$2,750 for teachers with 22 or more years’ experience.
Starting teacher pay will go up $2,500, from $59,000 to $61,500.
 
The district will provide all staff with 4 percent raises and no increased costs on health insurance premiums. This keeps Humble ISD teacher compensation as one of the highest in the Houston area.
 
Staff members holding non-teaching positions in Humble ISD will receive a 4 percent raise on average and the district will keep in place a $500 stipend that is paid in December and again in May for these employees.
 
Humble ISD also raises the minimum hourly pay rate for entry-level staff in positions such as child nutrition to $12, special ed paraprofessionals to $14.25, and bus drivers to $17.
 
During the pandemic, Humble ISD increased substitute teacher pay by $40 a day. Humble ISD will keep the higher pay rates in place to attract and retain substitute teachers to help preserve teacher planning time. Guest teachers will earn $120 per day with 60 or more college hours, $130 per day if degreed, $140 per day if a Texas certified teacher, and $175 per day if a retired Humble ISD teacher.
 
Humble ISD’s proposed budget further allocates funding so that employees will experience no increase in their health insurance premiums.
 
Additional innovative initiatives that Humble ISD plans to implement as part of a pilot program in the 2022-2023 school year include:
 
Paying the alternative certification program costs for paraprofessionals with degrees who want to become certified teachers; and
Paying student teachers for their work in classrooms.

All raises are based strictly on longevity? Merit doesn't matter?

@Weathergirl5 : I thought of you when I saw the headline about that. Were you able to get something lined up for next school year yet, or pending recovery?
