school district, open-enrollment charter school, or regional

education service center.

(c)

An administrator, other than a member of a board of

managers, superintendent, or assistant superintendent, may receive

(1)

a written contract describing the services to be

performed by the administrator is provided to the board of trustees

of the administrator's employing district; and

(2)

the board of trustees for the administrator's

employing district votes to approve the contract after determining
