School board approves 5 percent raise for support staff

The Olney school board of trustees approved a 3 percent pay raise for about 10 employees who are not on a specified salary schedule at a June 27 meeting. The raise covers central office staff, maintenance directors and athletic directors, school superintendent Dr. Greg Roach said. The pay raise was inadvertently left off the agenda when the board approved a 5 percent pay raise for the district’s other employees, he said.
