School Employees Granted 4.5% Raise
The Savanna School District has agreed to give its classified employees a 4.5% raise, which is the same increase it recently gave its teachers.
The raise for the 60 employees represented by the California School Employees Assn.--including most secretaries, custodians and cafeteria workers--plus the raise for the teachers will cost the district $225,000, said Supt. Thomas C. Halvorsen.
One percent of the classified raise will be retroactive to July 1, 1990, fulfilling a promise of a raise made several years ago, while the other 3.5% is retroactive to last July 1. The classified employees are in the midst of a three-year contract that expires in 1994. It calls for raises to be negotiated annually.
The elementary school district has four schools and about 2,000 students.
