The Pella School Board will review changes to the school district’s salary schedule at their meeting today. The board will consider new guidance that matches teachers with new legislation passed that requires new educators receive $47,500 or more, and for those with 12 years or more at least $60,000.

The board will also consider several new hires for the Little Dutch Academy in the consent agenda, as well as resolutions to approve the release of retainage with Academy Roofing and Sheet Metal Company, a classroom behavior manual for professional development, an auditorium manager job position, a Spanish trip to Ecuador in 2026, a memorandum of understanding with Kinetic Edge, and a series of changes to the 200 grouping of Board Policy. They will also consider the sale of $11.8 million in general obligation bonds.

The Pella School Board meeting begins at 5:30 p.m. today in the Pella High School library, and it can also be viewed online.
