The settlement includes $270,733.61 owed to Wise for the remainder of his contract, and $562,000 to resolve claims of unlawful termination and discrimination. “As one Director, I voted to terminate the former superintendent due to a lack of competency - period. He was paid out in full in accordance with his contract. In response to threatened civil rights litigation, the school district’s insurance provider agreed to settle with him.
