Volusia County Schools Superintendent Dr. Carmen Balgobin has presented Volusia United Educators with a memorandum of understanding to increase the pay for hours teachers spend tutoring. 

The agreement, which was signed by both parties on Friday, April 28, raises the compensation teachers receive for all tutoring offered before, during and after school to $35 an hour.  

Previously, the hourly rate for tutoring offered before and after school was $30 an hour.  

“Volusia County Schools is thrilled that VUE has come to the table with us to increase opportunities for teachers to be compensated for the vital services they provide every single day,” Balgobin said. “In addition to the increased hourly rate teachers received in the last contract, this increase demonstrates our dedication to teachers, who provide outstanding educational opportunities to the county’s students.” 

This change will go into effect starting the 2023-24 school year.
