Educational Supplements
At Stafford County Public Schools, we strive to offer competitive salaries for both licensed and service staff. Licensed professionals—teachers, counselors, social workers, and other non-administrative roles requiring a Virginia Board of Education license—are compensated based on the Teacher Salary Scale and credited years of experience. Additionally, those with advanced education beyond a Bachelor's degree may qualify for an educational supplement.
