The Clark County School Board is set to consider the resignation of Superintendent Jesus Jara at a Feb. 7 work session, according to an agenda for the meeting posted Wednesday.
In a resignation letter dated Jan. 31, Jara said his last day would be Feb. 21, and is conditional on the board’s approval of new contract language that would allow the superintendent to qualify for all the pay and benefits accrued under the contract through his last day if he gives the board at least a seven-day notice of his departure. It also adds a severance package that includes a lump sum payment equal to one year’s worth of salary.
Under the current contract, Jara is entitled to all the pay and benefits up to and including his last day if he gives at least a 90-day notice.
