Compensation Plan Update from Dr. Mark Ruffin
Superintendent Dr. Mark Ruffin shares important updates on the current legislative session, how it impacts school funding, and what it means for our 2025–2026 budget and compensation plan.
Highlights include:
✅ Ongoing advocacy for increased school funding and teacher pay
✅ Efforts to improve school discipline laws and healthcare options
✅ A continued commitment to employee raises and campus-level support
Key quotes from Dr. Ruffin:
“Proposition A has also positioned us to continue increasing compensation while maintaining long-term financial stability.”
“I fully anticipate a compensation plan that provides a raise for all employees in Montgomery ISD. Our board of trustees has consistently prioritized providing competitive compensation through pay increases over the years and remains committed to that goal.”
“…regardless of what happens at the state, the recommended compensation plan will provide a raise greater than the 1% approved last year. Our Board and leadership are fully committed to recognizing and rewarding your hard work.”
