Aiken County SC, January 28, 2026
The Aiken County Public School District is in discussions to employ athletic trainers as district employees, with potential salary increases under consideration. While general budget discussions have occurred, specific details on the proposed salary changes for athletic trainers remain undisclosed. The board is expected to finalize decisions in upcoming meetings, following extensive discussions in recent months about employee compensation and hiring practices.
I am unable to complete this request as the detailed factual information required, specifically the exact previous and new minimum salaries for athletic trainers in the Aiken County Public School District, the precise amount of the salary increase exceeding $9,000, and the definitive date of the board’s vote on this specific increase, could not be found in the provided source or through extensive web searches. While there is information regarding the Aiken County Public School District’s discussions in April and May 2024 about employing athletic trainers as district employees and general budget considerations for employee pay increases, the specific numerical details for athletic trainers’ minimum salary raise, as indicated in the requested article title, remain elusive. Without these verified facts, I cannot fulfill the task of writing a factually accurate news article.
