“The incentive supplement is the leadership’s way of expressing appreciation for our employees’ dedication and sacrifice in support of the school district during what has been a difficult school year,” said Dr. Morcease J. Beasley. “I join with the Board of Education members in believing that these supplements will serve as a means of retaining dedicated administrators, educators, support personnel, maintenance staff, custodians, cafeteria workers, bus drivers, and others who make educating our students possible.”
