Ysleta ISD’s teachers say they are owed millions of dollars

By Renee Narvaiz

EL PASO, Texas —

The Texas Commissioner of Education is ruling in favor of teachers in the Ysleta Independent School District.

 

The teachers said they are owed millions of dollars in payback.

 

The teachers association claimed teachers with more than 26 years of experience were not given a raise they were entitled to five years ago, which amounted to about $1,500 each.

 

The El Paso Times reported that the district can still appeal that decision, but that could end up costing taxpayers even more than the already $30,000 racked up in legal expenses, disputing the back pay issue.
