Summary
The school committee publicly approved the three-year contract for Evan Bishop as superintendent, effective July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2028; the board also approved a press release and noted Bishop’s $210,000 annual salary in the contract summary presented.
The Hopkinton School Committee voted May 15 to approve a three-year contract for Evan Bishop as superintendent, with a term beginning July 1, 2025 and ending June 30, 2028.
The meeting summary said Bishop’s contract includes standard administrator provisions (sick, personal and vacation leave) and an annual salary of $210,000. The committee also agreed to allow Bishop to participate in the new superintendent induction program through the Massachusetts Association of School Superintendents and to hold membership in the association.
Nut graf: The vote formalizes an earlier executive-session agreement and provides public disclosure of the contract’s main terms ahead of Bishop’s start date.
Details: Committee members said that salary increases for administrators are negotiated annually and are not fixed in the written contract. Kyla moved approval; Susan seconded. The committee conducted a roll-call vote (Kyla, Susan, Ami, Chris) and approved the contract unanimously. The committee also reviewed a press release to announce the agreement; the chair said she would distribute it to press and the district planned a district-wide release to staff and students.
Ending: No further public discussion or amendments to the contract were recorded at the meeting.
