RAISES TO BE DISCUSSED BEHIND CLOSED DOORS


Come to this weeks LSC meeting and see them go behind closed doors in Executive session to talk about contract negotiations. I bet none of those administrative type mentioned will be offering to take a pay cut. Granted considering the MILLIONS we are considered to be UNDERFUNDING the school system it would be purely symbolic.

Given the HUGE ones given recently to CITY LEADERS, I wonder what to expect.

Anyway, the link to the agenda is below.

    1. Well this time the school committee will be responsible and it looks like all the TOP adminstrators are up. Where is te money gooing to come from? Taxpayers on the hook?

  2. If people like the SECRETARY for the school committee and the business manager who helped get the district into the financial mess get any more money than their current 6 figure salaries, every taxpayer in Lynn should call for the replacement of every committee member who approves the raises.

  3. All of the contracts being discussed should not receive raises. Superintendent $212,000, Deputies $157,000 and $151,000, Dir. of HR $100,600, School Business Administrator $130,600 (who I believe recently received a 7% raise, correct? And was one of the parties responsible for incorrectly including retired teachers health insurance toward NSS which got us into the financial crisis we are still facing), confidential secretaries (not sure how many there are district wide, but there are 4 between superintendent and deputies and 1 in the business office with combined salaries of over $300,000) We have secretaries making more than teachers who have advanced degrees. I've said it before, if we want to know where a huge chunk of our funding goes, take a look at all of the positions within the school department and the salaries attached to them. Some positions are deserving of their salaries and some even deserve raises, but they do not include the ones being discussed at Thursday's meeting.
