The Ewing Township Board of Education and superintendent Michael Nitti have agreed to a new 5-year contract.
The new contract began July 1, 2018 and runs through June 30, 2023. The contract is in accordance with New Jersey’s Superintendent Salary Cap, which has set the parameters for the superintendent’s contract since its implementation in 2011.
The contract was approved by the board during the June meeting in a 6-0 vote, with board members Karen McKeon, Channing Conway and Maria Benedetti abstaining due to employment conflicts within the district.
Nitti has been superintendent of the Ewing Schools since 2009.
“I am appreciative of the support of the Board and honored to serve the Ewing school community,” Nitti said. “I have had a wonderful 30-year career in education and my work in Ewing has been a rewarding highlight. It is important to me that our schools are set up successfully for the next generation of students, and October’s referendum is a big part of that process and plan.”
“The board was pleased to reach an agreement with Superintendent Nitti,” board vice president Anthony Messina said. “We look forward to partnering with him and his team to continue to move the district forward, and working together to support a facility referendum that will provide progressive, modern schools for our students.”
Superintendent Michael Nitti,
