Board approves 3.25% administrator raise and three-year contract for Superintendent Dr. Andrew Rickley
Summary
The board approved a 3.25% total package increase for certified administrators (new admin base $75,800) and voted to approve a three-year contract for Dr. Andrew Rickley at a salary of $283,557.70 for 2026-27 after staff corrected retirement-calculation errors.
Board members voted on two personnel items during the April 13 meeting.
Dr. Settles reviewed corrected calculations used for administrative compensation and noted the district's practice of using total-package percentages when recommending salaries. The board approved a 3.25% total-package increase for certified administrators (with a new administrative base of $75,800) after a motion moved by Miss Witt and seconded by Mr. Bailey. The motion passed by roll call.
Later, the board considered a three-year superintendent contract. Dr. Settles said staff had updated retirement assumptions affecting the total package and recommended a 3.002% total package for Dr. Rickley, with a proposed 2026-27 salary of $283,557.70. The board approved the contract after a motion by Miss Witt and a second by Miss Butler; the vote was recorded as carried by roll call.
Both actions were presented as carrying forward subcommittee review and corrected calculations; no dissent was recorded in the transcript.
