TO PROVIDE THAT BEGINNING IN FISCAL YEAR 2019-2020, EVERY EMPLOYEE OF A SCHOOL DISTRICT IN THIS STATE WITH AN ANNUAL SALARY LESS THAN TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS, OR ITS HOURLY EQUIVALENT, MUST RECEIVE A PERMANENT FIVE PERCENT INCREASE IN ANNUAL SALARY.

The amount of the increase must be calculated using the employee's salary, or its hourly equivalent, from Fiscal Year 2018-2019. However, the provisions of this section must not cause an employee's annual salary, or its hourly equivalent, to increase to more than twenty-five thousand dollars. This section applies to full and part time employees.
