Manteca Teachers See Modest Pay Boost Amid Statewide Salary Disparities. A recent cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) has brought some much-needed relief to Manteca's teachers, with 85% of the increase aimed at bridging the pay gap between educators in the district and their counterparts elsewhere in the state. The move is a step in the right direction for Manteca Unified School District in addressing the long-standing issue of salary disparities, which have seen teachers in other districts earning significantly more. While some may argue that the COLA is a small step towards resolving the issue, it is a significant development in the ongoing effort to attract and retain top teaching talent in the district.
