SUBJECT:
Athletic Classes Taught During School Day
As you are finalizing your teaching schedule boards for the next school year, there is a need to know which of the athletic classes (up to eight) you will be offering to be taught at your school during the school day. As per an agreement made with the Board of Education, if a coach/advisor coaches their respective activity during the school day, they do not qualify for the Extended Differential allotment.
Paraprofessional coaches/advisors teaching classes during the day will be paid a monthly stipend amount (previously paid an hourly rate by clocking in on True Time) based on the Teacher Salary Schedule Level 1 $63,900. One period taught is equivalent to .125 of your allocated FTE totaling $7,987.50 per period/per year or $3,993.75 per period/per semester.
Please return the attached form to Brenda Groo by July 31, 2026.
