Governing board approves superintendent performance-based pay plan tied to board goals
Summary
The board approved a performance-based pay plan for the superintendent tied to board goals; the plan sets a contractual percentage (15%) to be distributed evenly across adopted goals, with partial credit for measurable progress.
The Phoenix Union governing board approved a performance-based pay plan for Superintendent Andrade for the 2025'026 school year that ties a contractual portion of pay to achievement of board goals.
The superintendent said the plan implements a contractual provision (approximately 15% of the contractual amount) and distributes that percentage evenly across the board's goals. If the board adopts five goals, each goal would be worth an equal share of the total percentage; half the percentage for a goal can be earned if measurable progress is made, and the remaining half if the full target is achieved.
Board members debated the mechanics of the plan and expressed willingness to revisit the increments for "making progress" at a future retreat once student-outcomes governance is more developed. Clerk Oliver moved to approve item 7e; Representative Marquez seconded. The motion passed with one abstention recorded.
