2008-2009 Compensation for teachers and school employees Petition: Signature List Feed http://gopetition.com/signatures/2008-2009-compensation-for-teachers-and-school-employees.html Online petition signatures en-us Sun, 5 Apr 2026 09:07 UTC GoPetition RSS Feed Generator Copyright 2026 GoPetition Ms. Paula Reichard [Signature #1211] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/7326040?utm_medium=rss Teachers have been under paid for too long. Teachers have a tremendous responsibility, just in their attempt to take a young child and try to develop that person into an achieving young adult.
It seems to me that the school board system doesn't stand behind the teachers, a majority of the time. Teachers do not have an average 8 hr day. They grade papers from home they buy supplies from their own monies. Teachers teach from the heart, but their reward is not in their paycheck.

The actions the board is considering are not in line with the Dallas ISD's stated goal of teacher and staff retention. You cannot cut the longevity pay of a long-term district veteran and expect loyalty. Neither can you expect loyalty from a low-wage support employee whose pay, and hence hopes, are stagnant. Find that $62 Million and pay your people!

Staff should also refuse to enter the Back to school kick-off event in August. Without teachers, none of the board members would be in their positions. Considering that DISD has trouble with simple accounting, it makes you wonder where they went to school. "On the Road to Broad..." Most support staff will not be able to afford the cost of living...do the math...oh, wait, you don't know simple math.

I have seen a lot of waste of money and a lot of stealing and misusing money but not by the teachers. The district is top heavy with too many people who have no direct impact on teaching. Teachers are there everyday working with students to learn. They put years into the job with their heart and soul. Their reward as they get up in years and prove they can do the job is to take away the award for their years of doing the job and cut their salary. Teachers already loss their SS.

The experienced, older teacher is needed in Dallas ISD to provide stability and wisdom, to assist in new teacher training. It is wrong to underestimate the value of the teacher with longevity. The older, more settled teacher is a good balance for relatively inexperienced newer teachers.

Additionally, that same year, summer school pay was raised to $20.00. It is stll $20.00. Can you say slave labor??? My TAKS passing rate in a low socio-economic area was 93%.

It is as inhumane as the comment made by the Director of EXXON regarding the high gasoline prices. His solution to the problem is to just cut something out of one's personal budget in order pay the high cost of gasoline. For some households, the only thing left to cut is food.!
