Wrenshall packet lists superintendent staffing models with cost estimates
Summary
Work session materials lay out FY25 and FY26 leadership options — from full‑time superintendent to intern/mentor, part‑time, shared, and contracted services — with estimated annual costs and a recommendation for short (one‑year) contracts.
The Dec. 4 work session packet for Wrenshall Public Schools includes a detailed set of leadership staffing options with estimated annual costs for FY25 and FY26.
For FY25 the materials list: a full‑time superintendent with an estimated total cost of $150,000–$175,000; an intern superintendent ($90,000–$100,000) combined with a licensed mentor ($20,000–$50,000); a part‑time superintendent ($75,000–$85,000); and a shared superintendent ($75,000–$85,000). The packet recommends that all contracts be no longer than one year with an option to renegotiate to preserve flexibility.
FY26 estimates update the ranges slightly: a full‑time superintendent at $160,000–$180,000; a licensed assistant principal $90,000–$110,000; a half‑time superintendent $80,000–$90,000; and shared superintendent options at $80,000–$85,000. Lower‑cost alternatives cited include a Dean of Students or Teacher on Assignment (estimated $50,000–$90,000), non‑licensed support staff ($35,000–$50,000), or contracting specific services ($25,000–$35,000).
The packet frames these estimates as tools for the board to identify a preferred option and proceed promptly to recruitment or contracting. No formal hiring action was recorded in the work session materials.
