STATEMENT
This bill would prohibit the Department of Education from regulating the maximum salary amount a board of education could provide to a superintendent of schools pursuant to the employment contract.
The executive county superintendent of schools was given the authority in 2007 to review and approve all employment contracts for superintendents, according to standards adopted by the Commissioner of Education. Under the provisions of N.J.A.C. 6A:23A-1.2 and N.J.A.C. 6A:23A-3.1, those standards provide that no contract for a superintendent is permitted to include an annual salary in excess of the “maximum salary amount,” which varies depending on the number of students enrolled in the district.
Prohibits the DOE from regulating the maximum salary amount a school district may pay its superintendent of schools.
