CONWAY — The Conway School Board voted Monday night to extend 12 administrators’ contracts and approve a salary increase for most of them. The new salaries total $1,055,958, an increase of $27,723 over last year’s salaries.
Taken as a collective block under personnel, the 12 were unanimously approved 7-0 by the board, although its newest member, Cassie Capone, wanted a little clarity before signing off on raises.
