While the board felt it was appropriate to give these salary adjustments, Board President Ignacio Saucedo, who cast the lone dissenting vote, while he values every employee's work, he felt that more importance should be placed on those employees who are actually in the trenches, your teachers, your I.O.'s and your professional staff.
Nevertheless the school board approved the pay range increase for off campus administrators as well with a 6 to 1 vote.
"We felt that the staff has worked hard and it is appropriate that they are paid," said the school leader, "We ask so much of them it's only appropriate that they are compensated fairly."
Aumento aprobado para el personal del EPISD

Un aumento de 3.5% fue aprobado para el personal profesional y un aumento de 3.75% fue aprobado para el personal y los manuales oficios para-profesional. De acuerdo a el Presidente de la Mesa Directiva Ignacio Saucedo, los miembros consideraron que era apropiado dar estos ajustes salariales.
Nos pareció que el personal ha trabajado muy duro y es apropiado que se les paga", dijo el líder de la escuela, "Pedimos mucho de ellos es necesario, que estén compensados de manera justa."
