For the second year in a row, School District of Lancaster administrators have agreed to a wage freeze that will save the district about $250,000.
The move, announced Tuesday night, is the latest by school administrators to forego raises to help Lancaster County school districts reduce expenses in the face of declining state, federal and local revenue.
Administrators in at least three other large districts, including Conestoga Valley, Hempfield and Manheim Township, also have agreed to wage freezes.
The move in SDL affects about 130 positions, including the chief financial officer, principals and their assistants, curriculum coordinators and other staff members, who were slated to get raises averaging about 2 percent.
Superintendent Pedro Rivera, who has a separate contract, also has agreed to freeze his salary at the current rate of $164,800.
