Balt. Co. interim superintendent is approved for next school year
TOWSON, Md. (WBFF) - Despite weeks of fiery debate, there was little fanfare Tuesday night when the Baltimore County School Board named Verletta White as its interim superintendent.
By a vote of 9-2, the board approved a $273,000 contract for White along with an all expenses paid automobile and a $450 monthly technology allowance.
The new contract will run until June 30, 2019. Board members have yet to indicate its future plans.

The previous superintendant was recently sentenced to six-months in jail after pleading guilty to four perjury charges. He was charged with hiding payments for consulting work he received for years, including from a firm that represents school system contractors.

ReplyDeleteEarning that much money you should be able to afford your own car and WTF is a technology allowance. At $450 a month you could afford a new smart phone, tablet, laptop and computer every 6 months.
