A newly released survey of 653 of California’s 1,058 school systems reports teachers were paid on average $84,489, while 33 administrators earned more than $250,000 in pay alone last year.
The pay and compensation information was complied by The California Policy Center, a nonpartisan conservative public policy think tank that runs Transparent California, which posted the survey for the public to review at transparentcalifornia.com
“We’re doing this because the public employs the public sector; and members of the public, as voters are being continually asked to approve tax increase and bond measures,” Policy Center Director Ed Ring said. “You can’t make an informed decision if you don’t know how much public employees make.”
Pay and compensation for employees makes up a majority of spending by local government entities; thus, it’s imperative the figures are publicly reported, Ring said.
Los Angeles Unified, California’s largest school system and the second biggest in the nation, was the only school system to refuse the center’s request for pay and compensation information, according to media reports. Although pay and compensation information for the state’s second biggest school system, San Diego Unified, was also missing from the database.

Thanks for the nice response.
Wow.
When I fill out the census form it asks “race”
I always write in “human”
They followed up with a call asking more questions and I told them I wasn’t answering them. I eventually had to hang up on the girl because she wouldn’t quit asking.
““Educators” definitely and shamelessly belly-up to the trough. Considering thet have “education” degrees,... “
Education majors have some of the lowest test scores. And you’d have to be a moron not to pass the education classes. When I got my teaching credential, with my last class I tested how little I could do and still get a C. I quit, studying, then quit reading the book altogether, quit proofreading my papers, etc. Still got an A.
“Education” classes are a joke.
