He may no longer be connected to the district, but former superintendent Kevin Case will be paid as if he was still leading USD 253 Emporia through the end of the academic year.
As part of the settlement agreement between Case and the district, the board agreed to pay Case all his salary and benefits through June 30, 2021, including sick leave, vacation and insurance. Case will also get a $10,000 lump sum as a replacement for contractual compensation and benefits owed in the 2021-2022 academic year.
Case may also seek employment elsewhere if he so chooses.
In exchange, both Case and the district waive any potential claims of wrongdoing against each other. Neither Case nor the board can disclose any details about Case’s employment or separation from the district aside from what is approved by state law and the Kansas Open Records Act.
Case led the district from 2016 to this past Friday, when he resigned effective immediately.
