A proposed budget for the East Baton Rouge Parish Schools could bring significant changes to teacher compensation, with potential raises on the table. However, the plan has drawn concerns from a different group of educators - bus drivers. According to sources, the budget allocates more funds to increase teacher salaries, but it may come at the expense of other essential personnel, including bus drivers who transport thousands of students across the parish every day. The proposed budget is set to be voted on by school officials, sparking debate over how to prioritize spending in a district with a complex financial landscape.
