Thanks for mentioning the salary which is way off the charts. We need choice as to where our education dollar is spent. Be "wok" on this issue.
Not bad compensation for heading up a failing system. It would have been better to tie her pay to some performance metric. But, alas, the trustees figured it is only taxpayer money.
