Following a long and arduous controversy, the Miami-Dade School Board and Rudy Crew have decided to sever ties on Wednesday, essentially ending Crew’s run as superintendent of the Miami-Dade school district.
Crew, who has been a subject of criticism from the school board for years and have been fighting to keep his job, finally agreed to a contract buyout of $297,000, in addition to health, disability and insurance benefits for two years. Crew will also get his retirement benefits, totaling his severance package at $368,000 courtesy of the district.
The school board on Monday voted 5-3 for holding talks about a buyout of Crew's contract. This after the superintendent barely held his job by a 5-4 school board in a meeting prior.
The school district would have had to shell out a whopping $700,000 payout if Crew’s contract was terminated.
