Batesville teachers get pay raise

Committed 100% of state funding to teacher compensation

(BATESVILLE, Ind.) -- Batesville Schools recently received an increase in state funding and are using the additional funds to support teachers.


The increase brings the average BCSC teacher salary to $58,000 with most educators receiving a five percent increase in pay.


"Our teachers are working hard day in and day out to shape the future of nearly 2200 students in the Batesville area,” said Paul Ketcham, BCSC superintendent. “The decision to increase salaries is an intentional message that we want to invest in them as thanks for their dedication to their profession."


In addition to the salary adjustments, BCSC has agreed to contribute an additional 10 percent

to health insurance premiums this school year, leading to a further increase in teacher take-

home pay.


Many of their teachers also participate in professional development opportunities, making presentations, or serving as extracurricular coaches or club sponsors. Pay also increased in all of these areas. A new consolidated extracurricular compensation schedule will boost pay for those corresponding positions by about 28%, on average
