Raising Superintendent Kris Corey’s salary to $241,088 won approval by Fairfield-Suisun School District trustees Thursday after one trustee’s motion for a higher raise to $245,820 was not seconded.

“We started her out low when we hired her,” Trustee Kathy Marianno said in seeking the higher raise.

Other trustees praised Corey but voted for the $241,088 raise that reflects a 1 percent increase based on her satisfactory evaluation for the 2015-16 school year and a 2 percent salary increase granted other employees in April.
