The Haines Borough school board has extended the contract of superintendent Michael Byer through 2014 and given him a 5 percent raise.

Byer’s new contract represents a two-year extension to a previous, three-year contract that was due to expire June 30, 2012. The contract will pay Byer $105,000 per year, up from $100,000.

The board evaluated Byer in June, but did so verbally to keep from having to release its details to the public,
