Head Start Teachers and other staff members have ratified a contract that boosts their pay by almost $13,000 and allows certified day-care Teachers to earn the same starting salary as those who work for the Department of Education.
District Council 37 announced Nov. 4 that 162 Local 95 members voted in favor of the contract, while 26 opposed it. The deal, which was disclosed early last month, will allow Head Start Teachers with a bachelor’s degree to make $61,070 by Oct. 21, 2021, $12,838 more than what they are currently paid. Those with a master’s degree will get a $15,517 bump in pay, earning $68,652.
