"Last night the Duval School District Board refused again to address Board Member Charlotte Joyce resolution after 150 public comments. "$275,000.00 just doesn't get you what it used to." - Board Member Cindy Pearson These were her words last night (followed by chuckles) when 5 DCPS Board Members decided to raise Diana Greene's salary to $300K and give her a 3 year extension on her contract. This decision was made after an IBEW Member complained about how they are losing tradesman due to the low pay from DCPS. Mind you, Elizabeth Andersen and Warren Jones wanted to raise it to $310K, but Greene said: "She couldn't do that, and would rather the Teachers and Staff share that $10,000." DCPS Teachers are ranked 41st in the State, and 6th out of the 7th largest districts In the state. Yet, they can raise Greene's salary, AND ask Duval County taxpayers for more property taxes for a supplement (not a salary increase) that does not count towards retirement, and is taxed at a higher rate. Board Member Charlotte Joyce is the only one who didn’t vote for the $25,000 pay raise. The Duval County School Board Members always appreciates the public’s input. Please contact them.
