Louisiana Teachers’ Possible Pay Raise | SWI | 3/6/26

Louisiana classrooms are seeing a historic streak of success, but the debate over how to keep those teachers in the classrooms is heating up. For four straight years, student performance scores in Louisiana have climbed – reaching a record high at the end of 2025. Yet as we head towards a critical state vote in May, the future of educator salaries hangs in the balance. Right now, educators are relying on a $2000-dollar annual bonus that was barely saved in the last budget. In this segment, LPB’s Johnny Atkinson reports on different options the state is using to entice educators to stay in the game.
