Save Money End Dissection

March 9, 2017 By Y3K

It is way more expensive for schools to keep buying disposable dead animals for dissection year after year as opposed to buying one batch of computer programs like the ones the medical schools use. In fact these computer programs tend to be donated free of charge to schools from various charities.

School Administrators Get Rich As Working Families Struggle

May 2, 2015 By Y3K

As school administrators continue to get outlandish salaries in the hundreds of thousands of dollars, they also continue to beg the taxpayers for more tax money. They never cut out waste and balance their own budgets. In fact most communities have seen a 40 – 70% increase in property taxes in the past ten years. To make matters worse, most families have not seen their income increase by that same amount. People on fixed incomes see their standard of living go down with every school money grab.

Tomorrow we will take a look at how much property taxes to pay for schools have gone up over the last 10 years.

Town To Cheat Working Families In Name Of Schools

May 1, 2015 By Y3K

In addition to the tax increase to pay for non-residents, Brookline MA also will be asking voters to approve $49,850,000 to renovate the Devotion School. Yes you read that correctly. Almost fifty million dollars! The extras they want include a new kitchen and café, a new gym with smaller attached fitness room, and 2 pre-kindergarten classrooms. They even plan on putting in an underground garage.

This spending spree will raise the taxes for each homeowner by $208 for 25 years beyond the thousands they are currently paying. If these people in Brookline have their way, each homeowner will have to pay an extra $658 ($450 covering non-resident students in the school system and $208 for the renovated school) in taxes beyond the thousands they are currently paying each year.

Tomorrow we will look at how much money they have already grabbed and wasted on outlandish administrator salaries.

Lincoln-Sudbury Superintendent Fiasco

December 22, 2013 By Y3K

The Lincoln-Sudbury Regional School District decided that their Superintendent earning $157,000 per year was underpaid. They decided to extend her contract through the 2014-2015 academic year for a whopping $170,000 per year. This is an 8.3% raise! Did you get as big of a raise this year? Or were you just happy to keep your job? What do you think about towns raising your property taxes so school districts can give away taxpayer funds like this?

Newton Public Schools Controversy

September 12, 2013 By Y3K

The City of Newton Superintendent of Schools after begging the taxpayers to raise their property taxes by $11,000,000 to pay for school projects, decided his meager $251,923 annual compensation was not enough. He has since signed a four-year contract being paid a 10% raise. Did you or anyone you know get a 10% raise?? He now receives $246,918 plus $29,748 in fringe benefits including payments into an annuity, a life insurance reimbursement and a car allowance. This brings his annual compensation up to $276,666. One has to wonder if the Newton, MA residents would have been so eager to raise their own property taxes with a Proposition 2 ½ vote at the pleading of the mayor and superintendent of schools, if they knew the same two public servants were going to raid Newton’s treasury after the vote.

Would the Newton Public Schools have been better off halting the Newton Public Schools Superintendent’s raise and spending the $25,000 on the children he was hired to serve?
