How to administrators in the Howell Public Schools merit a pay raise in a time of tight budgets? By getting rid of custodial workers, it appears.
In an article in the edition for Sunday (August 5, 2007), The Livingston Press & Argus quotes Board President Phil Westmoreland as saying the board's compensation commission has met to consider pay raises for the district's six top administrators.
Recommendations are likely in September, a month after the board considers various options for privatizing custodial services at the schools that supposedly could save up to $500,000.
Is it just me, or does this look like a Robin Hood in Reverse scheme -- cut the jobs of people at the bottom in order to give raises to people at the top?
