[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What has changed in the last 15 years in independent schools mirrors other sectors: More administrators and more salary devoted to those administrators; HoS and upper admin compensation has generally increased much more than teachers by raw and percentage measurements. Independent schools are also participating in facilities arm races. Finally, specific to DC but with national parallels - cost of living has sky rocketed. All of those drive high tuition as well as other school economic fundamentals. [/quote] Interesting. In essence a race to the bottom in terms of “fat” and admin costs. [/quote]
