[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can find the senior executives salaries on each school's 990.

Most are far below what these outliers are making.

The fact that teachers are not paid as well as DCPS is not news. [/quote]

they were paid a lot closer to DCPS before Michelle Rhee came in and delivered the new contract.   After the contract, DCPS teachers salaries for the most part had a significant change (much of it way overdue) - but Charters did not keep pace.[/quote]

How about because they hire unqualified, uncertified and straight out of school teachers. Used to be through the DCTF and TFA pipeline, changed somewhat over the years. Note we are not talking about all Charters but a core group, the ones who are always advertising on indeed.com because they can't keep staff. What I didn't know though, was how much the admin were making this is unbelievable. Then you have there is the fact, that has been posted on DCUM before, that failing charters are ALL referred to Tensquare (consulting program) owned or connected by some of the very same folks at the DCCB. Where is the oversight? Not only that why are students left to flounder in failing schools for years, obviously when schools know they are closing teachers leave. So quality of instruction drops even further, what does the DCCB do - watch from afar? They don't seem to provide any additional support to school or staff once they close. As numerous people have requested FOIA requests to no avail to Charter School Board, I say if you receive DC money you need to be more open and transparent. [/quote]
