Rationale for Salary
The salaries listed herein for each club and intramural activity are calculated by multiplying the number of hours times an hourly rate of $25.00. The number of hours for each activity are suggested and may be modified by the principal with notice to and approval from the Chief School Administrator provided budgeted funds are available. Should, for whatever reason, e.g. numbers of participants, etc., the activity hours be less than what is listed, a staff member will be paid the hourly rate times the actual hours. Prior to undertaking supervision of an activity a staff member will be required to acknowledge in writing their understanding of the activity they will be overseeing, the salary they will be paid, the minimum number of hours the activity will require, and that a quality assessment (administrative and student) of the activity will be performed upon its completion.
