West Virginia SB92 proposes enhanced pay for teachers based on regional market conditions.

West Virginia SB92 introduces a new method for determining teacher pay enhancements based on regional market conditions. The bill mandates the State Board of Education to calculate a market pay enhancement for teachers in counties with higher cost of living by comparing regional median home prices to the state median. This enhancement is intended to make teacher salaries more competitive with those in neighboring states and contiguous counties. The enhancement is paid as a lump sum and is subject to personal income tax.
