East Feliciana teacher bonus decision delayed
Posted: Dec 5, 2012 7:31 AM by AP
CLINTON, La. (AP) - The East Feliciana Parish School Board has deferred action on a move to deny bonuses to teachers no longer employed in the parish but who would be qualified for the extra pay for their performance in a special program last school year.
The board voted 8-4 Tuesday to send the matter back to its Salary Committee for more study.
Superintendent Henderson Lewis wanted to pay bonuses only to eligible teachers who returned for the 2012-13 school year. Teachers who resigned or accepted a teaching job outside the parish would not be eligible.
The bonuses, a minimum of $2,000, are awarded to teachers participating in a teacher advancement program designed to reward teachers who receive good evaluations and whose students show performance gains.
