How charter schools are ripping off the tax payers

margotsibley25.bsky.social•4 hours ago

Pure slime. Problem is this is happening at all levels of our society from TWH down to your local grocery. Mantra: take everything u can get. Complaints? Sorry, it was a repeatable mistake. Contextual denial now runs rampant. Elon that! A GIANT MISTAKE.

Get the list of the Board of Directors.

And this is why Trump is getting rid of the department of education in order to privatize schools. This is what the billionaires paid for

Why did I know this was Texas before I even read the article??

This is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to charters in Texas. And usually ALL superintendents (incl those of public ed districts) get those same perks with vehicles, high-end cell phone service and medical insurance is fully paid for. It's a shell game to be sure!

It ain't just Texas paying him that obscene amount.
All taxpayers are

Maybe this is the Texas Miracle I hear about every once in a while. I'm all for better salaries for educators, but even $300K/1000 students is ridiculous.

jhwoods.bsky.social•4 hours ago

I wonder what teacher salaries are like in that district.

As always, excellent reporting from ProPublica.

That is more than the President of the US makes!

This is why they want to dismantle public schools, elected officials can point their finger at charter/private school and say that's bad but it's not something I have authority over when parents complain.

The privates/charters don't have to be accountable and officials act like they're helpless.

How can that compensation be justified?
Heck, even DOGE would fire him to save money.

Who knew sucking the taxpayers’ teats was so lucrative?

(Who, besides Elon Musk, of course.)

johnprosser.bsky.social•3 hours ago

My highschool--not district, just the school--had 2,000 students. I doubt our principal made even ten percent of that amount.

mgocoder.bsky.social•4 hours ago

But of course. Charter schools are a scam to steal tax payer money and redirect it to rich Republicans.

internethuman.bsky.social•3 hours ago

Exactly! If people want to pay to send their kid to a different school then sure, go ahead. But no public money should go to any private/charter school.
