Charter School Salaries Over $100,000: Academia Antonia Alonso, Academy of Dover, Campus Community, Charter School Of Newcastle, Charter School Of Wilmington, & East Side Charter School

Academia Antonia Alonso, Academy of Dover, Campus Community School, Charter School of New Castle, Charter School of Wilmington, East Side Charter School

I did not forget charter schools in my mammoth Freedom of Information Act request!  With the above charter schools, the amount of employees making over $100,000 varies, usually based on student count.  Two of them have NO employees making over $100,000.  For Charter School of Newcastle and East Side Charter School, they are grouped together because they fall under the umbrella called Vision Academies.  For five of these charter schools, comparing their demographics to Charter School of Wilmington is crazy.  It has never been a secret that I have extreme issues with CSW’s demographics.  Two of these schools are in Dover, one is in New Castle, and the other three are in Wilmington.

  1. Most charter schools (but not all) serve far fewer children than district schools. Pay should be commiserate on the needs of the population served and the school’s unit count.

    I’d like to know – when a school/district ends up in a budget deficit, how many of these leaders sacrifice part of their salaries to “share the pain.”

  2. The reason Academia doesn’t have anyone making over $100K, is because the current Board President and her Treasurer make for impossible working conditions for respected school leaders and now they placed the Board President’s relative in the Interim Executive Director position. They’ve also made it impossible for other board members to stay on due to their constant meddling in day-to-day operations.

    Worth a look
