The Argos Community School Board took action this week to provide a stipend for employees.
Superintendent Ned Speicher said a stipend was negotiated for teachers in the two-year master contract, but this stipend is for the rest of the staff.
“The Certified employees will receive a $500 stipend and all of our Classified employees like our teacher’s aides, custodians, bus drivers, cooks – all of those employees will receive a $300 stipend at Christmas,” Speicher said.
The board unanimously approved the stipend as presented.
