I'd be smiling too if I received nearly $200K and not doing any work for it.
Donna ISD trustees approve $195,863 buyout for suspended superintendent
DONNA — School board members approved Superintendent Jesus Rene Reyna’s voluntary resignation Thursday evening during a special meeting and agreed to pay him $195,863 to terminate his contract.
“It’s time for the district to move forward, and I believe based on the decision of the board members today we will be moving the right direction,” Board President Albert Sandoval said.
Reyna had been suspended with pay since June 2014 and his resignation was effective immediately. He agreed to the settlement for the total pay he would have received if he were still superintendent through July 2017 when his contract ended.
The settlement payment will come out of the district’s general fund balance and the district will now be free to seek other representation. Sandoval said the district will most likely wait until after the November elections to fill the position and keep Fernando Castillo as deputy superintendent.
