Unfortunately, admin salaries are high in non-unions too. Superintendent Hinojosa’s base salary at Dalls ISD was listed at $328,000 earlier last year. And this year that district is talking about personel cuts. They should start at the top ... but they won’t.
THis is a game. They allow top administrators to make out like a bandit so the rank and file can too. “You see we pay you 348k a year so you won’t complain about generous pay increases, good pensions and free healthcare for the poor teacher making only 80k.”
Enough is enough fire them all or cut their pay. Every public employee should get an across the board 20% pay cut. My business has been so bad the last two years that I took a 50% pay cut to just survive.
