employee compensation

I found some good news tonight. Charter schools are not tied to the compensation model setup by their sponsoring district! They are free to setup their own pay scales and schedules. We can even incorporate performance pay into our model with bonuses and merit pay. After reading this I’m really surprised that more districts don’t go charter as a way to escape from employee contracts that worked when their funding was higher, but are crippling them today.

I’ve made it through the charter school handbook. Now I’m going to read the Oregon Revised Statutes that deal with charter schools. ORS Chapter 338 contains the charter school information.
