5 Unique to TUHSD TUHSD is in a unique position among districts in Phoenix and Arizona Our 100 th day ADM increased by approximately 350 students from the previous year Due to double digit insurance increase over the past 5-10 years, we were anticipating a double digit increase and budgeted accordingly; the increase was below 5% and this budgeted money could now be used for salaries TUHSD is still receiving funds from the 2010 voter approved override

6 Compensation Overview TUHSD worked to increase the base pay to the stepless salary schedules/placement guides during the last few years During the year, the Certified Communication Council, the Classified Communication Council, and the Budget Workgroup met to provide recommendations and feedback on salary increases for all employees Recommendations included the elimination of compression, recognizing years of service through banding, and providing all employees with a salary increase
