Special education teachers who worked with dyslexic kids: gone. Teachers’ aides: gone. Dozens of bus drivers, crossing guards and security personnel: gone.

BINGO! Also, have a look at the job titles in your school district's administrative offices. You would be surprised at the amount of overlap and useless personnel (by useless I mean people whose jobs are things such as "diversity outreach coordinator").

That is the problem with the DNC and GOP in most states. they will not cut the admin jobs.

The admin jobs are the big money jobs....with special retirement and buy out clauses that rip off the taxpayer more than any group of teachers would

Reality is that school cuts are a joke...the big cuts do not get made. Many of the admin jobs end up getting filled by the former politicians

Why would you cut jobs that have $100,000+ salaries to shuffle paper around? Somebody has to sit in those $1,000 chairs at those $2,000 desks and look busy.

The one area that is always immune to cuts is ADMINSTRATION. If we eliminated 90% of useless “administrators and staff” in our school district, we could give every student a free limo ride to class and back every day.

I'm still trying to figure this one out: We have a black female administrator for Hispanic programs that doesn't speak a word of Spanish (or any other language besides English) and is paid nearly $200K per year.

One area for savings is a “magnet” school. This is an “experimental” education tool. Two-thirds of the staff make $110K. One-third of the big shots make over $175K to $225K.

So where do the cuts come from? Sports, janitorial staff, teacher's aids, teachers, librarians. Perfectly sensible, right?

How many librarians are paid $225K on your planet?

BINGO!

Most school districts in Texas are top heavy with administrators. The very administrators whining are the very one who should have been cut first, not the special education teachers, teacher's aides, etc.
