Earlier today I posted information from For the Good of Illinois (http://blnnews.com/2013/10/28/4767-illinois-educators-have-retired-on-100000-or-more/) concerning teacher/administrator salaries and pensions. Both Unit 5 and District 87 administrators made the list of top 200 in the State. In 2012 there were 866 school districts. How do your salary increases compare to school administrators? I hope you aren’t eating.
These salaries put them in the top 4% of earners according to the New York Times, the top 2% for Illinois outside Chicago:
