Knox School Board Approves Administrator Contracts

The Knox School Board approved several administrators’ contracts Tuesday. “The administrators who are not changing positions will be on, like, status quo contracts until we figure out if we’re going to be able to give salary increases for this year,” Superintendent Dr. William Reichhart explained. “So for those, they will make the same salary as what they made previously, until we settle the teachers’ contract, and then we’ll be able to go back and look at other administrators.”

Reichhart said High School Principal Dr. Elizabeth Ratliff will be on a 240-day contract, while the rest of the principals and assistant principals will work 210 days per year.

Director of Curriculum and Instruction Peggy Shidaker will be on a 225-day contract, and Athletic Director Phil Owens will be on a 230-day contract.
