Question: Why do we need two chief academic officers: Ms. Niki Hazel Porter and Dr. Peggy Pugh?

Salaries don’t seem that high to be honest. I don’t think I’d take a job as a principal for ~190k.

I don't think the principals salaries are the ones people are balking at. It's the chiefs who, seemingly get paid to know nothing and do nothing.

They literally do nothing all day, except plan their next junket (read free vacations) and where to job hop to next. Total scam. And this wage list is very misleading. Add up all the perks and it's much, much higher; ex. pension, annuity, life insurance, car allowance, travel allowance, free master's and Ed.D. tuition reimbursement, etc, etc. And when or if they screw up, they get a golden parachute to leave.

Oh, please…you have no idea of their workload.

My understanding is that it's not really related to the level or subject matter taught. But more so the time in service and level of education. Kind of like how the GS scales work in government, other than each additional degree after the Bachelors moves you to the next lane.

Then there are some extra stipends for sponsoring working in an extracurricular activty.

The salary schedule for this year is here:
