Board renews director contract with 3.87% raise after discussion
Summary
Warren County Board approved renewal of the director's three‑year contract and amended the motion to increase the raise from the contract's 2% guarantee to 3.87%, matching the district certified‑staff average.
The Warren County Board of Education voted to renew the director’s contract and approved an amendment setting the pay increase at 3.87%, board members said at the meeting.
Chair (Speaker 1) opened the discussion by reporting the annual evaluation average of 4.09 from six submissions and called for a motion to renew the director’s contract as written, which contained a guaranteed 2% raise. Several board members questioned whether the board could adjust the percentage without reissuing the contract and discussed options including tying the director’s increase to the district’s average staff increase.
Committee member (Speaker 3) recommended matching the certified‑staff average increase of 3.87%, and Committee member (Speaker 7) moved to amend the renewal to include that 3.87% raise. After brief discussion about contract wording and whether any administrative steps would be required, the board approved the amended motion by voice vote.
The board did not record a roll‑call tally in the transcript; the Chair declared the motion carried. The amended renewal replaces the contract’s minimum 2% raise for the current renewal period with the 3.87% increase described at the meeting. The board did not specify an effective date beyond the renewal period discussed at the meeting.
Next steps: the board proceeded to other agenda items after approving the amended renewal.
