Cash deets: "Kansas City Public Schools Superintendent Mark Bedell is getting a $40,000 raise on his original salary, a car and hefty financial protections against termination in a contract agreement." Follow-up on the leader of a "provisionally" accredited institution that has made some progress under his tenure but still struggles to win students. Take a look:
Kansas City Public Schools Superintendent Will Stay Another Three Years, Get Pay Raise
Kansas City Public Schools Superintendent Mark Bedell has signed another three-year contract. Approving the contract was the last act of the outgoing, nine-member school board, which met in closed executive session before Wednesday's board meeting when the new, seven-member board was sworn in.
40K, that's absurd!
ReplyDeleteHow can this (tax payer) pay raise be justified?
ReplyDeleteIt can't. That is why the Board kept it a secret. They knew their decision was screwing the KC taxpayers.
Oh my god. Barely limped into provisional accreditation, and he gets a raise larger than the family incomes of the majority the families in the district? And a car? AND another contract for three years? Pretty sweet. One and a half mil for six years is a good living if you can make it.
ReplyDeleteHe getting the BMW now?
ReplyDeleteThe wife is high maintenance
ReplyDeleteA 40K raise for being one of the WORST school districts in the state, HMMM hope the next pot hole in this shit hole town I hit doesnt just fuck my car up, I truley hope it will be a fatality accident so I dont have to deal with this shit anymore!! KCMO is a joke - just paid 300 in property taxes on my car last week and 2 weeks before that I spent 900 on tires because my tax dollars are misappropriated in this shit town!!!
ReplyDelete10:35 quit bitching dude! US rich folks that live on Ward Road just got a brand new road, we own this city and if you dont like our privalage move the fuck on to another city that gives less than 5 shits about your complaints,(like KCMO) only people with money matter here, I am sure you are starting to figure that out by now, so figure it out you trash people making less than 300K a year, we love our dumb young people who rent, those are the suckers that keep us rich, along with our KCPL partners who charge 3X what a drink is worth when we have a event in town, One would think the greed would yeild to the locals, after all this city would be a ghost town if it were not for people coming here for work because the HAVE to. KCMO for sure has no class!! Hopefully I will never have to come back here for my job, I truely feel sorry for the people who live here!!
