Abstract	The 2015 AASA Superintendents Salary & Benefits Study marks the fourth edition of this study. This survey tracks the demographics, salary, benefits and other elements of the employment contracts of school superintendents throughout the country. This year's study is based on 728 responses, a 5.6 percent return rate. This is lower than previous years, and does lead to some limitations in drawing conclusions from the findings. However, the report is rich with information and serves as a useful snapshot of the superintendency. Key findings include: (1) Base salaries ranged from $55,000 to $322,171, with a median of $131,000 and an average of $140,021; (2) Respondents are predominately male (80 percent), White (92 percent) and from intermediate-sized districts (300-2,499 students, 52 percent) regardless of their gender; (3) Female respondents were, on average, older than male respondents (55 to 53 respectively); and (4) A four-year trend of improving economic conditions continues. Slightly more than half of the respondents (53 percent) reported their districts' economic conditions as stable, which holds steady from 2014; this has increased from 50 percent in 2013 and 45 percent in 2012. This year saw an increase in benefits, including contribution to retirement plans or annuities, medical coverage, and family medical coverage as well as a marked increase in the payment of national organization membership. The use of legal counsel also increased this year. Legal services are used by boards 60 percent of the time, and by superintendents 25 percent of the time. Both of these are increases from previous years. [For the 2014 report, see "2014 AASA Superintendents Salary & Benefits Study: Non-Member Version" (ED596103).] (ERIC).
