The highest earner in 2020, the latest figures available, was Superintendent Kelly Carpenter, who was paid $150,647, according to records provided to the BND from the school district.

Bluffview Elementary Principal Victoria White was the second-highest earner, bringing in $107,885, the records show.

The third-highest earner was Director of Special Education Kraig Roth at $100,998.

The district’s fourth-highest earner was Jr./Sr. High School Principal Stevie Brown at $98,000. The fifth-highest was JROTC Instructor Michael Conley, who was paid $82,215.

The BND’s Public Pay Database goes back to 2011 with information obtained through Freedom of Information Act requests. The salary information does not always include insurance or benefits. Some records include detailed information on overtime and other pay, while for some districts that information was not readily available.

The database includes worker compensation in most local governments, including cities, counties, townships, school districts and local colleges and universities. More pay records will be added as the BND receives salary data through open records requests.
