Compensation: J.
Carnie asked for this issue to be presented in non-public session concerning
the principal’s raises which the Board had voted on at the last meeting. He
explained that he was unable to stay through the whole meeting because of the
weather and he had no electricity. He said that if he had know that this issue
was going to be brought up he would have stayed. There was no indication that this
issue was going to be voted on according to the agenda. His issue is that the
proposal is for a 3.4% pool but there is one principal who is receiving more
than 3.4%. She is receiving 6.5%. He commented on a situation about a letter
and questioned after that why this principal was receiving more than the other
principals. He commented that he does not have a problem with the pool of money
but how it is distributed. He would propose that no individual receive more
than a 3.4% increase and to reduce the amount asked for by $2451.00. E.Jacod
commented that he forgot about the letter issue when he voted. J. Carnie
commented that the individual with the biggest problem received the biggest
raise. K.Dassau explained that the principal’s proposal was aligning themselves
and others around them. E.Jacod does agree that this issue should have taken
place in non-public before. J.Carnie comment that no person on the list should
have more than a 3.4% increase. K.Dassau explained that the Board has voted on
an agreement with the principals. D.Lyman explained that the information was in
the packet and a vote was to be taken. K. Dassau read the motion agreed upon by
the Board at the last meeting. It was to accept the principal’s proposal as
presented. MOTION: J.Carnie MOVED to have everything remain as is
but no principal is to receive in excess of a 3.4% increase. SECOND: T.Aho. DISCUSSION: W. Wright said that he would vote no. The Board has
already agreed. D. Lyman asked the principals if this is being presented as a
group they said no. They as individuals decided and hopefully they kept the
individuals in mind. The complaint was addressed in a response. The supervisor
felt the response was sufficient and we need to move on. VOTE: 3.479/6.416/1.955/3.150. Motion
fails.
