Centinela district hires 2 top leaders

Interesting nuggest in Shelly's story about the new hirings. Turns out, the recently fired superientendent is still collecting coin:

It was also revealed on Tuesday that the district's prior, recently fired leader is still collecting a paycheck.

Though she was ousted in December, previous Superintendent Cheryl White continues to receive her roughly $157,000 annual salary, (Board President Gloria) Ramos confirmed, noting that a separation agreement has yet to be reached.

"Technically, she is on administrative leave," Ramos said of White. "We would hope that Dr. White would care enough about the district to work with us on an amicable separation."
