Attract & Retain Stipends Keep Our Pay Competitive

9/12/2016

SVEA members love working in the Snoqualmie Valley. But it isn't always easy living in the area on an educator's salary. This is especially true when educators in surrounding districts have historically earned more than those in SVSD. With this in mind, SVSD and SVEA collectively bargained Attract and Retain Stipends to ensure our pay is competitive with neighboring districts (Issaquah, Lake Washington, Riverview, & Tahoma).

The bargaining teams studied compensation in these districts and agreed on stipends that would place SVEA members at the average for their level of education and years of experience. Based on this research, the yearly Attract and Retain Stipends for 2016-19 are as follows:
  • 0-11.99 Years of Experience: $500
  • 12-16.99 Years of Experience: $750
  • 17-23.99 Years of Experience: $1,500
  • 24-29.99 Years of Experience: $2,000
  • 30+ Years of Experience: $3,500
These stipends will allow SVSD to attract and retain the most highly qualified and effective educators possible - rather than lose them to neighboring districts that offer more competitive compensation.
