Alamance-Burlington Superintendent Dr. Dain Butler announced $10,000 recruitment bonuses today with hopes of attracting experienced educators to fill critical positions in the District. The bonuses are being offered for the following positions:
CTE Classroom teachers in Middle and High School
Middle & High School Math and Science
Title I Elementary Schools - core classroom teachers
EC Teachers, Speech & Language Pathologists, OT, and Psychologists
“Districts across the country are attempting to fill similar positions as fewer people are choosing to enter the profession. Our hope is that these bonuses coupled with our exceptional teacher support programs will be an extra incentive to attract the best educators to ABSS,” said Butler.
ABSS currently has over 100 teaching vacancies across its 37 schools. The District plans to use the Federal Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund (ESSER Funds) to pay for the traditional teaching positions and use Medicaid Administrative Claims (MAC) monies to cover the sign-on bonuses for Exceptional Children Teachers. MAC money is reimbursement received for administrative support required to identify students in need of health services and to coordinate and monitor these ongoing health services identified under the Fee for Service Medicaid program.
ABSS plans to pay $5,000 upon hiring with the remaining $5,000 paid in May 2023 to encourage retention.
