The Board wishes to express publicly its full support of Dr. Moody and her staff.The Board and administration recognize that the District had significant challenges this past year with the budget due to the uncertainty of federal, state and local funding, which is consistent with experiences school boards across the state have had.The Board and administration remain committed to continuing to manage the District's finances in the best interests of the District and the community.We are grateful for Dr. Moody's outstanding leadership, work ethic, and her commitment to the success of our District.
The Board voted to extend Dr. Moody's contract by one year, or through June 30, 2014.Pursuant to the terms of her contract, and based on her very positive evaluation, Dr. Moody is to receive a 2% salary increase, consistent with the 2% step increase received by teachers.Dr. Moody advised the Board that she plans to return the money to the District with a donation to the Rock Hill Educational Foundation.
