McGuire Contract Extended

Moline School District

A vote of confidence for the superintendent of the Moline schools. Monday night, the board of education approved a contract extension for Lanty McGuire.

McGuire was named interim superintendent in June of last year (2015), then in December the board made his appointment permanent with a contract through next June (2017). 

For the current school year his salary is 158,000 dollars, and it will increase by 6 per cent in each of the next two years. 

With the extension, McGuire will lead the Moline School District through 2019.
