FORT WAYNE, Ind. (AP) Teachers and other employees of the Fort Wayne Community Schools will receive payments of up to $2,000 for working during the pandemic, the school board has voted.
The board on Monday unanimously approved applying about $7 million in federal coronavirus relief dollars to employee stipends of $1,000, $1,500 or $2,000, The Journal Gazette reported.
“This is money well deserved, well earned,” board member Steve Corona said. “It’s hazard pay.”
Administrators and salaried staff including teachers will receive the highest amount.
To be eligible, workers must be employed on the last day of school, which is May 25 for students, said Charles Cammack Jr., chief operations officer for the district. Prorated amounts will be given to those who worked fewer than 120 days.

EACS board to look at virus rules tonight
ASHLEY SLOBODA | The Journal Gazette
Another Allen County school district is poised to join Northwest Allen County Schools in upholding coronavirus protocols.
The East Allen County Schools board is expected tonight to consider extending the district s reopening plan for the 2021-22 academic year.
The plan was first adopted in July as EACS prepared for a school year during the coronavirus pandemic.
The proposed resolution – which is listed as a discussion/action item – is similar to one NACS adopted in a 3-2 vote last week.
Both districts heard from parents wanting schools to make masks optional, despite Gov. Eric Holcomb s school mask mandate through the end of the academic year. Districts may enact more stringent rules.
