I knew I saw something last week about an NYC charter school that reportedly pays its teachers $125,000 a year, but I didn’t have time to pursue it. Fortunately, Ms. Frizzle apparently saw it too, and she’s got the details on how they do it: > The school day is long, but structured to provide time for each > teacher to take on one after school class and one school service > position. The school service positions include most of the duties > normally carried out by APs (or by team leaders like me! I mean, I > already do a ton of this stuff and for no extra pay and minimal > extra time), which allows the charter school to cut many mid-level > administrative positions, freeing up money to pay teachers better. Sounds like she’s applying. Incidentally, I figured out this morning that the place I had seen it was a job ad on our own site, so you can too.
