Show THE Foundation Says Methodists Plan Thanksgiving Utah Teachers Close Pay Gap Classroom teachers with a bachelor's degree in the Box Elder School District received a salary schedule increase averaging $714 or .7.1 percent this year. . In addition to this general raise, most teachers not at the tcp bracket of the salary scale also received an experience- increment averaging $421. Thus, the total salary increase for teachers in the Box Elder School District who have not reached the top step in the salary schedule amounted to $1,135 this to the ar These were some of the facia brought out in an analysis of teacher salaries prepared by Utah Foundation, the private research organization, and are based on the 1976-77 salary schedules submitted to the State Board of Education by local school districts. Certificated teachers with a bachelor's degree in Box Elder School District will receive a beginning salary of $3,412 this year with a maximum salary of $13,464 received after 12 years of service. Added amounts are paid to teachers with additional, academic training. The maximum salary for a teacher with a master's degree this year, for example, is $15,984, which is 90 percent more than is paid to a beginning teacher with only a bachelor's degree. The report notes that these are for approximately nine months of service during the school year. amounts Foundation analysts observe that over the past five years salary schedules for bachelor-degre- e teachers in Utah have been raised by $2,824 in Box Elder School District. The state also began paying the teacher's share of employee retire-- Went 'costs1 iir WW," which currently adds another$91S a teacher with five years' experience. In addition, teachers who had not reached the top step in the salary schedule have received annual experience increments totaling $1,248 over the five-yeperiod. Thus, according to the Foundation report, a teacher who began a teaching career in the Box Elder School District in 197i with a beginning salary of $6,188 has received total salary increases amounting to $4,585 or 74.1 percent over the past five years. In addition, if the teacher who began teaching five years ago had acquired added academic training, the salary boost during the five-yea-r period might be even greater. Although teacher salaries also have risen sharply in most of the other states during recent years, the Foundation study points out that the strong gains made in Utah have closed the gap that formerly existed between Utah and the other Mountain States. Ten years ago, the average salary for classroom teachers in Utah was about 5 percent below the average of the eight Mountain States. According to estimates made by the National Education Association, the average salary in Utah during 1975 - 76 was about 2.8 percent below the Mountain States average. Moreover, as noted, the state pays most of the employees' share of retirement costs in Utah, a benefit not generally available in the other states. When this special benefit is taken into consideration, the average salary paid to classroom teachers in Utah actually was slightly higher than the year. . pay of take-hom- e The congregation of the Community United Methodist Church, 207 N.
