“The wcss board of education employs the superintendent with a signed annual employment agreement. The board sets the superintendent's wage and benefits according to the administrative wage schedule, administrative wage worksheet, and the policy on benefits for wcss administrators. The superintendent's wage is calculated according to the administrative wage schedule, which provides incremental increases based on years of full-time educational experience and educational levels i-v (based on university units and/or degrees earned). The 12-month administrative wage schedule and the 9.65-month teacher wage schedule start with the same base wage and reflect the same incremental wage increases for experience and education levels. Adjustments from year to year are generally commensurate for the administrative wage schedule as for the teacher wage schedule. Increases, decreases, or freezes on wages (as well as for the tuition rate schedule) are recommended by the management team then evaluated, adjusted, and approved by the board during the formation of the big budget projections made in january for the coming school year. In april/may of the school year, each board member completes a report form to evaluate the superintendent's performance. Board member evaluation reports are collated by the board president and formulated into a report of commendations/recommendations for the superintendent. The board president presents the superintendent's performance review in a personal conference with and in written form to the superintendent. The board has chosen on occasion to provide a financial bonus in connection with the superintendent's performance review.”
