If passed, this budget could set the tone for Alabama education, helping fill classrooms and making Alabama teachers among the wealthiest in the region.HOUSTON COUNTY, Ala. - A $9.3 billion education package has passed the Alabama House of Representatives after a near unanimous vote.
The proposal would include a 2% raise to teacher and administration pay, raise the starting salaries of first-year teachers to $47,600 and could provide bonuses for special education teachers. Superintendent White said the district is not currently having issues with staffing, but this budget would help make any potential vacancies even more appealing.
