I have heard of Schoold Districts which have the administrative staffers pay pegged to the teacher's scale and therefore can't increase teachers wages because the corresponding administrators' wage increase, of their much higher salaries, "breaks the bank".
i teach at a large urban high school
at our school we have 34 out of classroom certified personnel
1- principal
5- assistant principals
10- counselors
3-deans
2 police officers
4-resource speciialists
4- people i have no idea what they do
5- curriculum specialists
student population is 3500
I may be missing a few people
We spend 10k per kid and the test scores don't even make the charts
