Blue Ridge Schools Dealing With Inflation

Dealing with inflation is something central Illinois Schools are dealing with and it's impacting so many areas of its budgets.

 

From gasoline to food to electricity, districts are seeing expenses increase. Superintendent of Blue Ridge Schools Dr. Hillary Stanifer indicates they recently increased pay for officials despite an increase in that rate just a few months ago.

 

 

Dr. Stanifer says a lot of increase in rates is following the lead of your neighbors. She says if other districts are raising their rates, they are going to likely follow to remain attractive.

 

 

Inflation was also part of the latest contract negotiations with its teachers' union. Dr. Stanifer says inflation was the talking point when discussing yearly raises.

 

Dr. Stanifer directs anyone interested in teaching or working in the district to check out the district's web page for information on openings at blueridge18.org.
