During last year's DESPA negotiations, we identified the need to create a leveled system to align compensation and titles with staff skill sets beginning in January 2027.
DSD is seeking approximately 12 Special Education Paraprofessionals, Student Services Providers, and Licensed Staff — across both general education and special education — to serve on a committee alongside Jake Richmond and Laura Galido.
The committee will meet in person four times from 4 to 5:30 p.m., with one session in September, two in October, and one in November. Please submit the committee interest form by Sept. 8 to indicate you'd like to join this work.
