Buncombe County Board of Education could get first raise in 33 years

Included in Buncombe County Schools’ 2021-22 budget request was $78,154 for a 340% wage increase for board members. BCS Superintendent Tony Baldwin told the Buncombe County Board of Commissioners during the May 10 budget meeting the raise will be the board’s first since the late 1980s. Baldwin did not say why board members’ stipends have not gone up in three decades. School board chair Ann Franklin said the board’s pay hadn’t even been evaluated since the 80s. “Why now? Well I’m not a board member, but I’m a superintendent that is working through COVID. Needless to say, stresses have come,” Baldwin said. “Certainly, I think, (the raise) would highlight the importance and responsibility that comes to those board members.”

Buncombe County predicts lower state testing scores because of COVID

View Comments Local schools anticipate students will not perform as well as usual in state testing due to the COVID-19 pandemic’s weighty strain on education. Buncombe County Schools Director of Testing Steve Earwood said because “many students have had their education disrupted,” the district is preparing for lower test scores. “The results may be lower than they would have been in a normal year, but it will be reflective of the learning that has taken place,” Earwood said. “We may find that the students will do much better than we think they will. We don’t know which is why we need the assessments to accurately gauge the impact COVID has had on the education of our students.”

NC housing for teachers in Asheville, Durham promise affordable rent

Teacher housing is a concept with a long history in the Tar Heel State. For many, a teacher s salary alone doesn t cut it in the current housing market. An elementary school teacher in Asheville City Schools, Sandi Abernethy, 49, worked a series of part-time jobs outside the classroom - for a catering company, hotels, and a nanny service to help cover her four-figure monthly rent in the city. This extra employment evaporated when the pandemic hit, and Abernethy found herself in a financial bind. Then in August, just as the school year was starting, she secured a unique living arrangement in the mountains: Abernethy is one of a small number of North Carolina educators whose districts provide them housing at below-market rates.
