D60 educators to receive salary increase of 10% over next two years
PUEBLO, Colo. (KRDO) After a series of highly productive negotiations throughout the Spring, Pueblo School District 60 and the Pueblo Education Association teachers union have reached a tentative full and total 2-year agreement that includes a significant compensation increase for educators.
As a first for the District, this 2-year agreement gives educators a 5.2 percent salary increase and elevates the District’s educator salary range to $39,140 to $86,059 for 2021-2022.
The second year of this agreement gives educators a 4.8% salary increase and elevates the District’s educator salary range to $40,157 to $88,296.
State lawmakers have proposed a bill that would suspend Colorado Measures of Academic Success (CMAS) testing for this year.
The bill would allow state education officials to request a waiver from the federal government to suspend its standardized tests. The U.S. Department of Education recently ruled that states should continue with standardized testing despite the restrictions of instructional learning due to the pandemic. We believe that standardized assessments this spring would fail to fairly assess student achievement and growth and would result in an additional loss of instructional time, said Dalton Sprouse, communications director for Pueblo School District 60, in a statement.
The report found the main sources of teacher dissatisfaction are the increasing workload, current working conditions during the pandemic and low salaries. I m not all that surprised. School districts in Colorado are chronically underfunded. District 70 is at the bottom of that list, said Amy Spock, president of Pueblo County Education Association, the union that represents teachers at D70. We (Colorado) are well under the national average for teacher pay. We are also well underfunded compared to other states.
Older teachers were found to be more likely consider leaving after this year, as 53% of teachers ages 60-69 years old said they were considering leaving, and 45% of teachers ages 50-59 years said they re considering a career change as well, according to the report.
