Who starts publicly funded, private sector corporate charter schools that take money from public schools? To discover the answer learn how much the owner/CEO pays themselves and Nothing but GREED becomes the truth.
I’ll point you to two sources on this hot tip: Washington City Paper and Curmudgucation, which can point you to other sources as well.
In general, the heads of charter schools – who receive lots of tax dollars but who don’t have to let the public know how they are using those funds, not even through FOIA requests – make a LOT of money, much more than a mere principal or superintendent, even though they are in charge of WAY fewer students or staff.
Charter school teachers? They often don’t earn even as much as their public-school colleagues.
I’m cutting and pasting the WCP article, and also suggest you read Peter Greene’s post at Curmudgucation.
