Just a reminder that the top 10 administrators pull in almost $2.5M annually. I see no mention of the budget sleight-of-hand pulled last year when the WorCoComms approved a budget that included increased starting salaries but the Bd of Ed either spent it elsewhere or it was included in the $$ they "found" - look it up!
ReplyDeleteWorcester County spends more per student than any other county im MD and our best high school is rank 31st in the state. Where is the money going. Too much administration?
ReplyDeleteRaises every month? Get more money for moving farther away? Wtf?
ReplyDeleteShow me one teacher that moved to a neighboring county due to salary. In addition. a large number of worcester county teachers already live in the other counties.
ReplyDeleteTeachers should not be complaining about increments. They have received increments every year since 1968, except the 3 years noted
Lets not be greedy. Many others have not received a wage increase in years.
