The Logan Municipal Schools board during its July 10 meeting extended its superintendent’s contract by one year.
Dennis Roch’s pact now expires on June 30, 2025, with him earning a salary of $138,000 — an increase of $13,000 from last year.
He received a two-year contract last year.
The board’s action last week occurred after a closed executive session to discuss Roch’s contract.
Roch, a former representative in the New Mexico Legislature, has been Logan’s superintendent since 2013.
The board also unanimously approved a resolution regarding the need to issue a state-issued education technology note.
The board is scheduled to issue the $500,000 note during a special meeting at 5:30 p.m. Aug. 7, just before its regular board meeting at 6 p.m.
The technology note can be used to pay for new computers, software, servers, network switches and communication equipment.
The board issued a similar technology note of $350,000 last year.
