School Supes Get Raises

Two South Fork school boards voted in the past two weeks to give their districts’ superintendents raises. Katy Graves, the Sag Harbor superintendent, and Jack Perna, who is Montauk’s, will receive salary increases of about 1.9 percent and 2.9 percent, respectively. The Sag Harbor and Montauk School Boards approved the raises on July 5.

Mr. Perna’s salary will rise by $5,000 to $179,338. He serves as both superintendent and principal of the Montauk School, where he has worked in various capacities since 1973. He did not receive a raise last year. Mr. Perna’s contract is a one-year contract that has been extended each year by school board vote.

For Ms. Graves, who was hired in 2014, her $4,187 raise brings her salary up to $224,562. Her contract, which was not extended, is to conclude at the end of the 2016-17 school year unless the district negotiates an extension before then.
