DCSD board gives Lark extension

Carol Lark

When all was said and done, Douglas County School District Superintendent Carol Lark was given an extension to her contract. It now expires July 2011.

The board met more than once to decide if it would honor Lark’s request to have the one-year extension.

“It was hard fought, but it was not as ugly as the June 17 meeting,” board President Cindy Trigg said.

No changes were made to the contract. Lark gets a “step” raise per Nevada law of 2.5 percent now that the Legislature has unfrozen those dollars.
