Revision of salary schedule Policy GCBA was discussed by the Marshall School Board during its meeting on Tuesday, May 24.

Minutes from the meeting say currently the policy states an employee may not advance more than one step vertically and two columns horizontally per year on the salary schedule unless such movement is allowed by the board-adopted rules and is uniformly applicable to that particular salary schedule or is otherwise approved by the board.

Superintendent Dr. Carol Maher recommended the policy be changed to:  An employee who earns a higher degree within a calendar year may advance to the column representing that degree, rather than being limited to a two-column movement per year.

The board unanimously approved the recommended change.

Revision of advertising Policy KI also was discussed.

Currently, the policy states the district may accept or solicit advertising for use on the district’s website and in gymnasiums, athletic fields and other facilities primarily used for extracurricular activities. Any such advertising will be limited to the name, address, phone number, Internet address and logo of the advertiser.

Dr. Maher recommended the policy be changed to:  The district will not enter into a sole agreement with a specific business that would limit the number of advertisers on any district or building signage.

The board unanimously approved the recommended change.
