Hmmm. It looks like the numbers posted on Ffx Co's wiki page are way off. I guess both districts are bloated with non-teachers.

Perhaps that's what it takes to run a large school system - all those other people: bus drivers, paras, lunch and recess, security, maintenance, counselors, speech therapists, OT, PT, psychologists, librarians, IT staff. Lots of people involved outside classroom teachers.
Perhaps. More likely these large school systems have become make-work programs for educators who can't or don't want to educate. I've asked the same question in a dozen threads and no one can answer: how many central office employees are there? 100? 500? 1000?

How do you define "central office"? Many people work both. Some are listed as central office but spend time in schools. How would you count the food people working in "central office" that are making 100,000 meals to be delivered to schools every day?

You can dig through it all here: https://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/siteassets/district/departments/budget/fy2025_recommendedbudget.pdf
I'm thinking about central office desk jobs....people with titles like "Associate Superintendent of Naval Gazing."
