Here is the REAL TRUTH behind the OUT-OF-CONTROL public education SALARIES which YOU AND I are paying with our tax dollars....HERE
Now, you want me to get really mad and angry and blow a gasket over some teacher who was paid "$7,286" last year.
Sure, right ~ I'll do that.
First stop is going to be to pick up some union representation cards for that crowd though. Good grief!
“I dont see any teachers”
It doesnt matter, all PUBLIC EDUCATION (teachers, Admins) are paid by OUR TAX DOLLARS - this is just the high end of the mountain.
For Teacher Data go to the following link. About halfway down the page is a compilation of average salaries and fringe benefits for teachers in Wisc. The actual data is on page 2 of the report. The fringe benefits are way above what is provided to employees in the private sector and it is my understanding that only the fringe benefits are the part that the governor wants to reduce by about 7%.

Maybe print it on T-Shirts?
Let me do a critque here ~ you blew it with the wrong data. Don't compound a bad job by trying to justify it.
Just ask the Administrator to DELETE your threads so we can all start over and get all huffy over overpaid administrators and people with doctorates.
Get us to screeching like a bunch of Democrats about bloated plutocrats and evil corporations!
District Position Low Salary High Average Fringe
East Troy Community Sch Dist Teacher $20,000 $116,066 $54,922 $26,067
D C Everest Area Sch Dist Teacher $33,650 $101,450 $59,978 $22,211
Milwaukee Sch Dist Teacher $35,729 $98,871 $56,095 $30,202
Spooner Area Sch Dist Teacher $20,074 $98,081 $52,605 $27,940
Kaukauna Area Sch Dist Teacher $35,414 $96,465 $61,363 $27,780
Arrowhead Uhs Sch Dist Teacher $35,508 $93,518 $60,851 $29,434
WOW Fringe benefits are more than 50% of salary in cases.
On average it appears fringe benefits are more than 45%.
No wonder the teachers are screaming bloody murder!!!!
Sugar Daddy is leaving town!!!!
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.
The sad fact is that it all starts in the home and that will never be addressed. Accountability the whole way around.
This link is for Florida Teachers Salaries, by county and degree:

List is on p.3......
It’s not hard to find the salaries of your own public employees in your state. But since you asked nicely here’s the list for Wisconsin, which is ANYONE that works for DPI.

Easiest way to use it is I put in the fields teacher, Milwaukee for district and Milwaukee County.
I clicked a few of the teachers qualifications and they all were around 40K-$70K pay and $35K fringe and the substitute teachers around $35K per year, little or no fringe benefits.
I copied and pasted that in to a spreadsheet. The total is $98,186,065!
Very nicely done!
Noticing a pattern with this list.......”administrator” seems to be the highest paying job in the system. Do they really need that many administrators? Maybe, they could cut the administrators salaries or better yet, the positions, and maybe, the teachers would get paid better.
Get rid of the unions, get rid of the NEA, get rid of tenure, GET performance based retention practices......oh heck, just privatize the schools.
interesting times...
Wow you know some teacher’s with great work ethic. The few that I know bitch about their pay, sit on their ass all summer because ‘they don’t have any money’ or get a float loan from the Teacher’s Credit Union because ‘they have no income in the summer” (boo hoo) and ONLY go to classes when the union pays them to do so. Pretty nice job since it isn’t based one bit on performance.
$80k??!! My wife's been teaching for 12 years ... only makes 50. But yeah ... it's a game. Cuts need to start at the top.
Forgot something ... no free health insurance either. I put her on my insurance cause hers was so expensive.
I agree!! The question I have is, what do the school bureaucrats do they do? Maybe I’m a simpleton but, I don’t see the point of having even one. Are they teaching the kids? Do they pay all the school bills? What is it they do?
Errr...that should read what do the school bureaucrats do?
I'm guessing they're all teachers on that list, they just aren't teaching any longer.
