Student progress tempts Des Moines board to sweeten Sebring's pay package
About Sebring's current compensation Des Moines public schools Superintendent Nancy Sebring is paid $206,178 a year.
She also receives an annual car allowance of $6,000 and a $34,019 annuity contribution, according to her contract, which ends today. She received a 7 percent raise - about $14,700 - last year, during which more than 100 teaching positions were eliminated to help offset an $11 million funding shortfall.
Sebring earns more than the superintendents of the Davenport and Cedar Rapids school districts. Each district has hired a new superintendent within the past four years, and each pays its leader just under $200,000 a year.
Local and national comparisons by the Register show leaders of urban districts with more than 25,000 students, on average, are paid $225,897. Regionally, superintendents are paid $142,726 each, according to a study by the Educational Research Service in Virginia. A district similar to Des Moines in Fort Wayne, Ind., pays its leader $174,500 a year and hasn't provided her a raise for the past two years.

Gains have been made in Des Moines students' academic performance and graduation rates during the five years Superintendent Nancy Sebring has led the district, a Des Moines Register review of achievement data shows.
Those gains have school board members - concerned over the possibility Sebring will be lured away - poised to increase the superintendent's compensation package.
Sebring's contract expires today, but board President Connie Boesen said the board doesn't need to make an urgent decision about how much of a raise to give her.
"During these challenging times in education, the Des Moines school board is willing to display our confidence in Nancy Sebring as our superintendent," Boesen said in a written statement in April.
The board is studying superintendent salaries in districts similar in size to Des Moines, some of which pay their superintendents around $250,000, Boesen said. That would be an increase of more than 20 percent from Sebring's current $206,178 salary.
Sebring, in her application in March for the superintendent's job in Boulder, Colo., touted improvements in Des Moines' students academic performance during her tenure that began in 2006. She wrote that under her guidance, the academic achievement gap between white and minority students has narrowed and the district's graduation rate has improved.
