Nancy Cardone’s Son Was Already Amongst the Highest Paid Principals in the State of New Jersey…


Was it really necessary for Nancy Cardone and the 2 BOE members she personally handpicked (she never recused herself from selecting the negotiations committee) to add new benefits to Cardone’s contract like annual payments for unused vacation days and doubling the number of personal days?  Michael Cardone was already allowed 22 vacation days and 2 personal days each school year in addition to all the other categories of days off.

The base salary for Nancy Cardone’s son under the expired contract is $158,572.08. On the next payroll you will see the raise Nancy Cardone got for her son for this school year.  The unit is receiving a 2.80% increase for the school year. 

 

Families like the Cardones continue to treat a public school system as though it is their private family run business. They clearly stated time and time again that they have no understanding that there is a difference.
