I've suggested that officials pay raises in Oregon (statewide payscale) should be tied to teacher pay raises....same percent for both. The question arises about what the teacher pay is since each district has a different scale but it shouldn't be hard to come up with an average percentage raise for all teachers in the state. It will probably never happen as they want to be able to cut/freeze our pay at will even when they get a raise just so they can save a few bucks....as long as they get theirs.
