Broward budget does not include teacher raises for now

Broward County teachers do not have a salary increase included in the Broward County school district’s new budget for now.

The decision affects teacher pay under the district’s current budget plan. It does not mean the issue has been permanently settled; the status is described as applying for now.

What the budget means

The new budget does not provide a salary increase for Broward teachers. No dollar amount or percentage for a raise is included in the information released about the decision.

What remains open

The current outcome concerns the new budget as it stands. The budget status is not described as a permanent ban on future salary increases.

The Broward County school district is the public institution involved in the budget decision. Any later change would need to be reflected in a new or revised budget action by the district.
