SUPERINTENDENT SALARY COMMITTEE REPORT (2014-2015)
The Superintendent Salary Committee met on November 12, 2014 with
Assistant Superintendent, Gail Atwood, to discuss more current
information regarding the Superintendent’s salary since their last meeting
in June 2014. Ms. Atwood provided the committee with updated salary
contract information for Superintendents in Region V County Offices of
Education as well as nearby districts. In June 2014, the Superintendent’s
salary was fourth from the bottom of the thirteen included in the survey.
Although Sutter County Superintendent’s salary was adjusted at that time
for 2013-14, the committee found the salary to now be fifth from the
bottom of the group of thirteen superintendents’ contracts in the 2014-15
fiscal year.
The committee recommended the 2014-15 Sutter County Superintendent’s
Salary Schedule be adjusted by 5.75% and that 4.0% be maintained
between steps. If the increase is adopted, the current Superintendent’s
salary will still be below the midpoint among the other superintendent
salaries surveyed.
The committee also recommended the Sutter County Superintendent’s
workdays continue to be set at a minimum of 220 days.

the certification required to teach English learners, if present.
Misassignment means the placement of a certificated employee in a teaching or
services position for which the employee does not hold a legally recognized certificate
or credential or the placement of a certificated employee in a teaching or services
position that the employee is not otherwise authorized by statute to hold.
Teacher vacancy means a position to which a single designated certificated employee
has not been assigned at the beginning of the year for an entire year or, if the position is
for a one-semester course, a position to which a single designated certificated
employee has not been assigned at the beginning of a semester for an entire semester.

SUTTER COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION
SUTTER COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT OF
SCHOOLS
RESOLUTION ON LOCAL RESERVES CAP
SB 858, Section 27/California Education Code
42127.01
RESOLUTION NO. 14-15-VI
WHEREAS, The County Board of Education and school district governing boards
have the obligation to provide a quality education that is essential for an informed
citizenry, a competitive economy, a fulfilling life for all students, and the
foundation of our democratic society; and
WHEREAS, The County Board of Education and school district governing boards
are responsible for maintaining fiscal solvency of the school systems they govern; and
WHEREAS, The Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF), based on the principle of
subsidiarity, provides governing boards, working with interested stakeholders, with
the authority to prioritize funds in order to provide quality education for all students,
especially those who are English learners, from low income households and who are
Foster Youth; and
WHEREAS, Funds for crucial services for school operations, such as payroll,
classroom materials, school construction projects, technology, home-to-school
transportation, deferred maintenance, etc., often require successful ongoing cashflow management and disciplined planning, including the creation and maintenance of
prudent financial reserves; and
WHEREAS, County and School district reserve levels, as well as their fund balances,
are determined by governing boards to meet local priorities and allow districts to save
for potential future expected and unexpected expenditures and for eventual economic
downturns; and
WHEREAS, Community funded schools (Basic Aid Districts) receive funds only twice
a year and must rely on adequate reserves to manage cash-flow for normal daily
operations and for future purchases and unforeseen events; and
WHEREAS, The statutory minimum for school district reserves for economic
uncertainties ranges from 1 to 5 percent, depending on district enrollment, and
covers between one to five weeks of payroll, or less than 20 days of total cash-flow;
and
WHEREAS, Prudent budgeting raises expectations for school districts to establish and
maintain reserves above the statutory minimum; and
WHEREAS, The Government Finance Officers Association recommends reserves
equal to two months of average general fund operating expenditures, or about 17%;
and
WHEREAS, Rating agencies like Fitch or Moody’s typically assess the adequacy of a
district’s reserves by comparing them to statewide averages, which have hovered
around 15% for California unified school districts in recent years; and
WHEREAS, The Fiscal Crisis and Management Assistance Team emphasizes the
need to assess cash on hand and fund balance together. There are many benefits to
having a higher than minimum reserves including but not limited to; financial flexibility
to absorb unanticipated expenditures without significant disruption to educational
programs, protection against exposure to significant one-time outlays such as
disasters, lawsuits, or material audit findings, protection against the volatility of state
revenues, protection against the volatility of property tax revenues for basic aid
districts, cash management/avoiding the cost of borrowing cash, protection against
declining enrollment, protection against the expiration of parcel taxes, protection to
cover increases in fixed and statutory costs, financial flexibility to shift resources as
priorities set through the LCAP process change, planning for major projects such as
information technology upgrades or deferred maintenance; and
WHEREAS, On June 20, 2014, the Governor signed into law SB 858 (Committee on
Budget and Fiscal Review, Chapter 32, Statutes of 2014), now embodied in California
Education Code 42127.10; and
WHEREAS, SB 858, Section 27 Education Code 42127.01, is now operative with the
passage of Proposition 2 on the November 2014 state ballot, and requires school
districts to spend their assigned and unassigned account balances down to no more
than two to-three times the minimum level of the statutory reserve for economic
uncertainties (depending on district size) in the fiscal year following the fiscal year in
which the State of California makes a payment of any amount to the Public School
System Stabilization Account; and
WHEREAS, Under SB 858, this provision, a deposit by the State of California of even
$1 to the Public School System Stabilization Account would result in school districts
throughout California having to spend down billions of dollars in their reserves and
ending balances; and
WHEREAS, It could take many years for the State of California to build up an adequate
Public School System Stabilization Account; yet, in one year, school districts would be
forced to spend down their reserves and ending balances to levels that could jeopardize
fiscal solvency; and
WHEREAS, The LCFF is not fully implemented, many school districts are still funded
below their 2007-08 levels, and districts cannot survive another downturn without fiscally
responsible reserves.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, The Sutter County Board of Education calls
upon the Legislature and the Governor to repeal the language contained in Section 27 of
SB 858 (Chapter 32, Statutes of 2014) now in Education Code 42127.01 immediately.
Passed and adopted this 14th day of January 2015.
