The Gwinnett County Public Schools board of education Thursday approved a one-time pay bump of $700 that teachers and other employees on their salary schedule will receive next month.

The bonus, which will be included in the December monthly paycheck, goes to about 12,000 full-time benefited teachers, counselors, speech language pathologists, school technology coordinators and media specialists who were on the payroll as of Thursday.

“This has been a tough year for teachers,” Superintendent J. Alvin Wilbanks said as he recommended the board approve the bonus, which passed unanimously. “They have really worked very hard under trying circumstances.”
