presented by Stacie Smith, Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources, and recommended by the Superintendent for approval. Meeting : Oct 27, 2014 - Regular Meeting Type : Action (Consent) Recommended Action : Motion to approve the language change to the Administrative Salary Schedule, Managerial Salary Schedule and Professional/ Technical Salary Schedule. Public Content The requested language change will not affect an employee's current salary. The current language states, "Employees who receive promotions from the administrative, managerial or professional/technical salary schedules will be moved laterally from their current step to the appropriate step." The current language as written is open to interpretation. To correct this the requested language change would read, "Employees who receive promotions to positions within their current salary schedule (Administrative, Managerial or Professional Technical salary schedule) will be moved to the new position pay grade at their current step. Employees who receive promotions that require a change in salary schedules will be placed on the appropriate pay grade at the lowest step which reflects an increase in pay." File Attachments Admin DRAFT Salary Schedule FY 2014-2015 - Revised 2014-10-16.pdf (90 KB) Prof-Tech DRAFT Salary Schedule FY 2014-2015 Revised 2014-10-16.pdf (84 KB) Managerial DRAFT Salary Schedule FY 2014-2015 Revised 2014-10-16.pdf (86 KB) Consent Our adopted rules of Parliamentary Procedure, Robert's Rules, provide for a consent agenda listing several items for approval of the Board by a single motion.

Public Content The current Federal Administration with the U. S. Department of Education has proposed a re- authorized Perkins Act that would transform career and technical education and usher in a new era of rigorous, relevant, and results-driven CTE shaped by four core principles-alignment, collaboration, accountability, and innovation. In an effort to be pacesetters by preparing and implementing a transformation of our career and technical education programs we have been meeting with representatives of Northwest Florida State College to develop the concept for a plan for a joint effort to address changes in both of our career and technical education programs to ensure that they are meeting the needs of a new generation of students and to prepare them for in-demand occupations in high-growth industry sectors. In order to move forward with this joint effort we have prepared a proposed Memorandum of Understanding between the two institutions that sets forth the scope of a collaborative planning process to include the creation of a Career and Technical Education Advisory Committee.
