Do you send informational emails regarding important U-CF School District activities?  

Yes - we have an email account that we use in order to send important messages to our supporters.  We realize inboxes can become quite full with the overabundance of information that's out there.  Therefore we aim to strictly limit the number of notices we send.  To sign up for our email notices, send an email to partnersineducation@comcast.net, and simply provide your full name and email address.  We will add your name to our distribution.  We NEVER share your email address with any other person or organization without your express consent.  Your address is kept private when email newsletters are distributed.  You can unsubscribe at any time by sending an email to us with "UNSUBSCRIBE" in the subject line.

The Board recently voted to give our Superintendent a new 4-yr contract which included a salary increase.  Some people are saying the salary we pay is way too high.  Is it?

Our previous Superintendent had a more robust contract AND would actually be earning a higher salary than our current Superintendent if he were still in the position today.  If you compare against other Superintendents in our region, you will see that the salary our District provides is always in-line or less than those other districts.  Below are numbers from the 2007-2008 school year, provided by the PA Dept of Education:
