Teachers in Gainesville may have the opportunity to weigh in on how they’re compensated for leading extracurricular activities. Merrianne Dyer, Gainesville City Schools superintendent, presented the topic of strategic compensation to the Gainesville City Schools Board of Education for discussion at its meeting Monday night. Gainesville City Schools currently has a local supplement based on a percentage of the base teacher salary, which is set by the Georgia legislature every year.
