All school employees to get $2,000 bonus

All Pierce County School Employees will have a great Friday this Good Friday receiving a $2,000 bonus.

The bonuses are part of an initiative by Governor Brian Kemp to reward school employees. Funding for the bonuses was included in the state’s budget for fiscal year 2026.

The bonuses are given based on student enrollment counts and based on that formula, Pierce County would not receive enough to cover the total $1,095,200 that would be required to cover all system employees.
