Went to lee summit schools. I can definitely tell you it was the poorest school I’ve been to, for science projects we would use stuff like cereal and in math we did lots of group projects due to there being no paper or ink for almost the entire year.
$40K/year? Is that accurate? In Ontario, Canada the average high school teacher makes over $100K a year. Teachers have the most important job in the world, $40K isn't enough.
@@tuesdaypatience Come to Texas. DFW STARTING teacher salary is 55k. I taught in St. Louis and my starting salary was 34k. It's a joke. There are high paying teaching jobs/districts out there. Just gotta find them.
@@robertballuumm730 Yep. Superintendent salaries are absolutely ridiculous. And the board, with just a pen vote to increase their salaries. It's crazy.
Home schooling your kids doesn’t reduce the amount of school taxes paid to this man salary increase. That’s the whole point, why should he make 400K while the same teachers make 40K and less. Why should you pay school taxes if your kids don’t attend school?
@@deanhenthorn1890 The point Christopher is making is that homeschooling allows YOU to be in control of how/what to teach your kids, not some stupid Superintendent making $400k who has no clue what he's doing and couldn't teach worth a darn. It has nothing to do with paying taxes. But to your point, you're correct. No one should be paying taxes to a school if your kid doesn't go there. That's why we should abolish the Department of Education. Give every tax penny to the parents and let them see fit how to use it-whether that's a charter school, home schooling, private, parochial etc...
@@stevelopez372 Ohhhh trust me. I know! I've been a teacher for 19 years. NEA and AFT are giants at lobbying and vouchers, school choice, getting rid of the dept of education will NEVER happen (at least through legislation). The only way it can happen is if enough parents pull their kids out of school and homeschool or set up school co ops with other parents which a lot of parents are doing. Once enrollment decline hits them then they'll start to realize there's a problem. But even then that's not a guarantee. The teacher's unions are the worst. The ONLY reason why many teachers (conservatives included) are in the union is because of their liability insurance. You have legal representation which is absolutely necessary due to sue happy parents and crazy administrators wanting to get you fired.
This outrageous, when teachers don't have supplies and have to buy them out of pocket. Teachers barely earn a living wage, then this bozo is earning 400,00.
A friend spent almost $1000 a few years ago. The bulletin boards had to be changed every week. Then she spent a lot for bribes for students. She bought a lot paper for crafts for holiday gifts.
My suggestion is don't do "work to rule" for teachers. No. Instead do "buy to rule." EVERYTHING a teacher has bought for the class is taken out. It would look like the class had been robbed if we did that.
Teachers barely earn a living wage??? Tell that to an over-the-road truck driver, a steel worker, a construction supervisor, a farmer, an architect, or a landscaper
Does the median worker oversee the safety, well being and education of over 25,000 students every day? Or manage their parents? Or about 100 staff at each of 20+ different facilities?
No but then again, the median worker doesn't get 80% of their annual salary (which for this guy would be 320k per year) in retirement funding for 25 years either.

Taught for 30+ years. In that time I rarely dealt with competent administrators. Most were 'all ego' and had an agenda not focused on doing what was best for students. They were ALL overpaid compared to frontline teachers, rarely focused on improving education, & became administrators because they were crappy in the classroom. They protected their friends and harrassed those who weren't bootlickers. "Follow through" was non existent. People blame teacher unions for the inability to fire poor teachers. That is BS. It is totally due to lazy administrators. I loved my time in the classroom, but in NO WAY I would get into education today were I a young person. The board should all be replaced in this instance. The taxpayers should not let this go unanswered.
Get out in public meet the people in the community let them get to know you. Go to meetings encourage parents, teachers and the community to go to meetings it can only get better if you want quality people to help improve their community. Also do this if your town council members are only looking out for themselves, families and friends. Good luck
break that down thats almost 34000 a month 8500 a week 1700 a day a day absolutely deplorable the entire council should be removed and replaced with people that live in the real world
I work for a school district. can’t believe the hidden hand that always plays a part in Who they hired or who they promote. They always want friends and people that will hold their secrets for them. The pensions they receive are incredible and sometimes they go out their way to triple dip. And that’s coming from the person sitting in HR. He has a pensions from the teacher, has a pension from the CMA department, and has a pension from the administration department. If I can count correctly that’s three pensions from the same district.
Agreed. They're worth at least ten times that amount. He ran a school system of more than 20 schools, each one with near or more than 100 teachers and faculty. Each school has tens of millions of dollars in assets, and is responsible for every adult, parent and student that comes through its doors. Compare that salary to your typical office CEO who probably makes more than 10 times that amount for fewer than 10% of the resources and something close to 1% of the responsibility of a school superintendent.
400 grand seems a bit much, but the rest of the board agreed to it. Time to vote them all out. Parents get active. These school boards are the reason indoctrination occurs.
Good news and bad news. I googled this story and the superintendent decided to step down after this. Bad news is he agreed to a settlement of $450k to do so.
@@thepubliusproject It still doesn't answer the question. If he's getting $400k how much are the others getting? His salary is the same as the president of the US without the same responsibility. I don't think salaries are open records if increases can be made without consulting others first. Who proposed his increase and who approved it?
@@robertballuumm730 I have no idea what the other salaries are. Check the school's budget documents which should be listed on their website. Salaries are indeed open records for public officials.
Wow a big pay raise for the Superintendant meanwhile Teachers teach kids absolutely nothing ( That is unless the kids are in advanced placement i.e. kids get preferential treatment) and the kids suffer. Public schools just don't give a damn about kids. They never have.
Believe it or not school boards will listen, they all have public comment sections of their meetings and after an hour of people speaking out every meeting and specifically target the board members up for reelection you can effect change, board members like the power and prestige but if they can't get reelected it all goes away.
If he took home a clean 100k instead (after taxes) he could fund needed salary increases for about a dozen teachers, maybe more. He could increase the base pay of his teachers across the board, making the district one of the most competitive in the country. He could fund powerful and long lasting district wide initiatives. But no, I guess he needs to buy like 3 more cars or something. I would argue that no SP should make more than $150k, and that amount would be for large districts. That money should really go back into the system as reinvestments into the schools’ missions. Judging from the building the meeting was held in, the school district is quite wealthy, or at least well off. The kids likely have most of what they need. Why not just increase teacher salaries or support staff salaries? Why not save the money for rainy days?
I like all the comments from pandemic times as if this video was from now instead of 2016🤣 Even with that said 2016 and 400k is bullshit for a school superintendents salary

Good administrators need to be compensated well in order to attract and maintain good talent. Teaching should be more lucrative and standards increased. Parents are mad at the wrong problem and the public is fundamentally uneducated on how to make their school successful.
Outrageous salary for a small school district. What a cow town. Pay your teachers, and cut your administrators. If you are not directly involved in teaching our youth, you are insignificant.
These horrible people aren't bothered about what you think they are only bothered about money not what they should be doing for the school and the pupils

Good administrators need to be compensated well in order to attract and maintain good talent. Teaching should be more lucrative and standards increased. Parents are mad at the wrong problem and the public is fundamentally uneducated on how to make their school successful.
Crooks
Outrageous salary for a small school district. What a cow town. Pay your teachers, and cut your administrators. If you are not directly involved in teaching our youth, you are insignificant.
400 thousand dollars?????? For what???????
It just goes to show that the education unions are more about their wallets than education. The Potus makes $600,00. How greedy can you get?
These horrible people aren't bothered about what you think they are only bothered about money not what they should be doing for the school and the pupils
400,000? Increase the teachers pay with that money!
400k ???? W***?? all students from that district graduate astronautes or what!!!
I'm a teacher too. So let's use our critical thinking here.
He ran a school system of more than 20 schools, each one with near or more than 100 teachers and faculty. Each school has tens of millions of dollars in assets, and is responsible for every adult, parent and student that comes through its doors. Compare that salary to your typical office CEO who probably makes more than 10 times that amount for fewer than 10% of the resources and something close to 1% of the responsibility of a school superintendent.
This is trickle down economics! This is happening every where. 400 times the salary of a teacher is the same in the business community.
GO PARENTS !!!!!
FIGHT BACK!!!!!!
Time to pull your children from public schools tell everyone that will listen.
Mister, your fired.
In my suggested: he resigned.
