HENRICO COUNTY, Va. (WRIC) — In an attempt to address ongoing staffing shortages and the effects on current staff, Henrico County will be giving out annual teacher bonuses starting next year.
New and current teachers will receive an annual bonus of $3,000 starting next year. Henrico says this initiative will be in place for at least three years regardless of any changes in vacancy rates.
