As reported by The Sunday Capital yesterday:
- Anne Arundel County School Superintendent Salary: $231,750
- State School Superintendent Salary: $195,000
- Governor Salary: $175,000
- County Executive Salary: $150,000
The number of Anne Arundel County school employees earning more than a six figure income jumped from 213 last year to 450 this year. The top 100 school employees received raises of 18 to 33% from 2007 to 2009. I know you have to pay well to get good employees but WOW!
Only in America could you have a County School Superintendent making more money than the Governor of the entire State.

That is interesting becaes they day also that real estate is bad but it is not in all areas
We have the same problem here in San Diego, but it pervades not only the education system, but all the public service systems here. I believe in paying our educators, police, medical, and firefighters well, but some of these half-a-million-dollar annual salaries are a little on the extravagant side.
The School Superintendant has great bargaining power, apparently, Dick. Have a great week.
