[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I never want to be an administrator of any sort and generally think all districts are too top and central office heavy.

BUT I do not have an issue with a district level admin making significantly more than an entry level teacher.  - a teacher [/quote]

Agree. It’s mostly not that those salaries are inappropriate, but that the org is too top heavy and those with with high salaries are often making things worse more than they are helping.[/quote]

I can't speak to the quality of particular leaders in FCPS; I'm happy with our kids' schools. But think about the budget size, facilities, employee and student numbers. C suite and the level below in the private sector earn a TON. Public sector and nonprofits can't compare with that, but there has to be some decent level of compensation to attract leaders. Otherwise, no one would want to work as leaders in these organizations! [/quote]

Provide some evidence of strong leadership. [/quote]
