Word has leaked out that the DOE will soon be issuing a boiler-plate contract for local districts to use for their superintendents. Reportedly, the State will also direct salary ranges based on region. It’s unclear how this will work. For example, Atlantic County has about 30 school districts, from little Absecon School District with about 800 kids to much larger districts like Egg Harbor and Atlantic City, with respectively augmented responsibilities. And how about Newark, where the superintendent there, Clifford Janey, gets over $300K in salary and bonuses? Does this mean that districts which are geographically close to Newark will be fighting off superintendents eager to profit by geographical proximity? Stay tuned.
