> highly paid school admin

I would not have expected a school administrator to be highly paid. What kind of salary are we talking about here?

It's the teachers that are shafted, not the admin/manager class.

That's mind blowing to me. I'd imagine they out earn a significant percentage of HN posters!

They're CEOs of fairly large organizations, often managing thousands of employees and budgets of hundreds of millions of dollars.

And they get pensions!

....yes, half a million dollars per year is highly paid.

In Texas, the superintendent of the big school districts all make around $400k.

Yeah, but a good portion of that is making sure they keep the football team going.

In the Dolton school district (Chicago suburb), their superintendent makes $530k / year. Is that for the football team?
