Question: How did ACPS fund the local portion of the 2% increase in teacher pay from the state in FY24 and how do they anticipate funding in FY25? (Councilwoman Alyia Gaskins)
Response:
The FY 2024 state teacher pay increase became effective January 1, 2024. ACPS is funding the half-year cost in FY 2024 through vacancy savings. The ACPS FY 2025 approved budget includes funding for the first full-year cost.
