Eastchester OKs
School Budget Eastchester commuters hur
ried off delayed Pe»n Central trains recently and joined their neighbors in approving the School District 1 $517 million budget, 1,550 to 1,039.
More than 2,500 voters also elected to three-year terms on the school board Muriel Hahn and Martin A. Sokoloff, incumbents, and Ronald Brotherton. All were unopposed.
Passage of the $5,695,751 budget mandates a $2.34 tax rate increase.
"We came in with one of the best tax rates in the county while maintaining educational excellence at the same time and this is what we sold to the people," Marvin Berry, district business manager, said.
According to board member Ronald Lockhart, an "absolute minimum of new projects" was incoporated into the 1969 - 70 budget. Almost all budget increases were part of a< $250,000 package to teachers comprising a 6.9 per cent increase in staff salaries and increased hospitalization and insurance benefits.
The minimum teachers salary was increased from $7,000 to $7,500 while the salary maximum was boosted from $15,400 to $16,450.
Blue Shield and Blue Cross benefits were also increased along with hospitalization and insurance benefits which will cost Eastchester District 1 about $40,000 per year.
"The benefits we're giving out are not out of line with what is
being provided by other districts and by private industry," Mr. Berry said.
Civil Service employes who, like the Eastchester Teachers Association negotiated with the school board this year for benefits, will receive comparable salary increases and more generous retirement qualifications, it was said.
Mr. Berry also cited budgetary increases brought about by a 15 per cent increase in tuition charges of the Board erf Cooperative Educational . S e r v i c e s (BOCES) and the creation of a post for a full-time coordinator of athletics and physical education.
