CCISD school liaison officers receive 3% raise Roughly three months after Galveston County gave the go-ahead, Clear Creek ISD finalized a 3% increase in pay for its school liaison officers, or SLOs. The overview CCISD approved the increase at its Oct. 28 meeting, which came three months after Galves- ton County did so in August. Compensation for each SLO is calculated according to their individual career path step and corresponding salary grade or step, accord- ing to Galveston County Commissioners Court documents. Salaries for both SLOs and the SLO administra- tive assistant are funded by the county, as well as the new 3% compensation, CCISD documents show. CCISD will not make any financial contribu- tion toward the increases.
