Evergreen Solutions was retained by Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) to conduct a compensation study for all employees. Evergreen’s consultants developed two compensation systems (i.e., step-based and peer-based) for teachers and staff (i.e., administrators; occupational/physical therapist assistants, speech language pathology assistants, interpreters – Levels I and II, occupational therapists, psychologists; administrative assistants; aides; support services staff; bus drivers and bus aides; and nutrition services) that addressed steps missed in recent years with regard to their pay plan. Evergreen also developed an implementation plan for the two systems that included the next 3 – 5 years and will provide recommendations on changes needed to the current compensation systems.
