Board approves 4.12% raise, $2,500 bonus and contract amendment for superintendent after unanimous evaluation
Summary
After an executive session, the Greenwood 51 board reported a unanimous, "enormously positive" evaluation of the superintendent and approved a 4.12% salary increase effective Jan. 1, 2025, an immediate $2,500 bonus, and a contract amendment to maintain a three-year cycle.
Following an executive session to evaluate the superintendent and discuss an employer contract matter, the board reported the evaluation results in open session and moved to implement the compensation recommendations discussed in executive session.
A speaker on behalf of the board summarized the evaluation as "enormously positive" and unanimous. The board then voted to approve a 4.12% salary increase for the superintendent effective Jan. 1, 2025, an immediate $2,500 appreciation bonus, and an amendment that keeps the superintendent on a three-year contract cycle (the transcript describes a one-year extension to maintain that cycle).
The motion to accept the recommendations was made, seconded, and carried by voice vote; the board recorded the result as motion carries. The action will be added to the superintendent's contract as an amendment.
Board and superintendent remarks emphasized appreciation for leadership and continued focus on student outcomes. No detailed vote tally or individual votes were recorded in the open transcript; the board characterized the decision as unanimous.
What happens next: the contract amendment and pay changes will be incorporated into the superintendent's contract. The board did not provide further implementation details or timelines in open session beyond the effective date for the salary change.
