The search begins today for a superintendent for the Springfield school system, one of the largest in the state.
Norm Ridder, who has been superintendent for the past nine years, announced recently that this would be his last year.
Ridder's salary after nine years was $159,333 per year, according to DESE. C. J. Huff, after his first five years in Joplin, made $175,000 annually.
Don't forget these suckers get free insurance that everyone else pays steep for. Kind of like Congress--screw everything up, make everything too complicated for anyone to understand, stick everyone in the back or ruin them with slander, give themselves sweet deals, and then blame the underlings who get jacked up every year for the mess they made themselves.
ReplyDeleteSpringfield appears to be truly conservative and they're doing a lot better than Joplin. Guess this disproves the theory that you get what you pay for. Joplin paid a lot to lose ground and good staff. Stupidity at its worst.
