[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So many comments about reducing overhead at central office.  Is this only the hungerford drive location?  How many employees are there of the central office?  Is there a budget that shows the total salaries spent for central office personnel?[/quote]Students and staff

Students 160,554 (2022-23)
Teachers 13,994 (2022-23)
Staff 25,232 (2022-23)[/quote]

In those numbers, "Staff" includes staff at the schools and elsewhere. Principals, secretaries, building, security, cafeteria, etc.[/quote]Sure, but MCPS has what 210 schools?  This is an average of 120 staff per school which is nuts.  Even at the high school level, how many staff could there possibly be, 100?  That leaves the central office with high hundreds to even thousands of employees.  Insane.[/quote]

It’s the number of ghost employees- retired- who are scary.  Pensions and healthcare for those cats- who have long departed for cheaper Red States.  THIS is the reason budgets are in billions - and yet so many MCPS schools are shoddy and filthy.[/quote]

Part of their employment agreement was a pension and health care, just like many other jobs, especially government way back when.  That's no shoddy and filthy.[/quote]
