At a time when most school districts and municipalities are preparing for significantly less state aid due to New York State’s budget crisis, the members of the Rochester Board of Education may be taking a pay cut. The board members, who are by far the highest paid commissioners of any school board in the state, will discuss the possibility of reducing their own salaries when they meet Tuesday. Over the summer, as Rochester City School District officials wrestled with closing a massive budget gap, Superintendent Lesli Myers-Small said all departments should plan to reduce their budgets by 20 percent. That means cutting more than $286,926 from the Board of Education’s $1.4 million budget. The entire district budget is $927.6 million.

The Rochester Board of Education may be getting a pay cut at a time when most school districts and municipalities are preparing for significantly less state aid due to New York State’s budget crisis.
Over the summer, Rochester City School District Superintendent Lesli Myers-Small said all departments should plan to reduce their budgets by 20% in case the worst happens. That means cutting more than $286,926 from the Board of Education’s $1,434,630 budget. The entire district budget is $927,587,824.
Board Commissioner Amy Maloy suggested publicly Thursday what she has said to board members privately in recent months the cuts should start with board members’ salaries.
