Based on the plan rates comparison, what are your thoughts on the issue of tiered vs. composite rates for employee health benefits?

To clarify:
  • Tiered rates are when employees pay different rates based on the number of folks in their families they want to cover. For example, the three tiers on the rates comparison use the tiers of :

o employee only

o employee plus one (spouse, child, partner, etc)

o employee plus family

  • Composite rates (what we've traditionally used in the District) are when all employees pay the same rates regardless of whether or not they cover only themselves, a spouse/partner/child, or if they cover a family.

  1. Very concerned for all of us. I know our district has a hidden agenda. The truth is never given. Why can't we have the straight out facts on the insurance. When Mike was our Superintendent there was true leadership going on. There was a relationship between the teachers and there was trust. I am at a school where there is no discipline at all and several complaints have been made but nobody chooses to listen. What is going on with our district? Truly! We are always the lowest paid and now we will be continuing that in all other aspects as well.
