Teacher's Minimum wage to starts from N24 Million Annually
The School District Five of Lexington and Richland (LR5) approved a fiscal year 2022-2023 budget plan that includes a pay raise for teachers and staff.
The new salary will go into effect on July 1 and is intended to combat teacher vacancies across the Midlands.
“I know that recruiting and retaining teachers has been a problem for many years. But it’s not a problem now, it is a crisis,†said Jan Hammond, LR5 Board Chair and active teacher in Lexington District 2 (L2).
LR5 attributes the pay raise to a reported 3.6% increase in revenue across the previous fiscal year. Now, first-year teachers can expect an annual salary of $39,853 increased to $41,600.
