Opportunities Funded

Salary increases that include the first of a projected two-year phase-in of a revised
professional pay scale that, when fully phased in, will:
• increase the starting salary to $42,000 (an increase of $1,927 or 4.8%);
• ensure future raises can include step increases to keep steps and years of
experience aligned in the way in which Virginia teachers are accustomed; and
• allow for scale increases so the scale remains competitive over time.

A new, more transparent method for awarding supplements for educational

achievement beyond a bachelor’s degree (for professional staff), and beyond a
master’s degree (for administrators).

A more competitive pay scale for assistant principals.

Raises given across all positions, not just Standards of Quality (SOQ) positions for
which partial funding for a raise is being provided by the state. Raises in 2019-20 will
vary, particularly given the proposed adjustments to the professional scale, but will
average the 3% needed to leverage all available state funding.

Improving substitute coverage by ensuring substitute pay rates are competitive.
