Delaware has three vocational districts, one for each county. For this post, I’m combining Polytech (Kent) and Sussex Tech (Sussex). Both have fixed enrollments. In fact, Sussex Tech got in trouble a few years ago for going over that fixed amount of students. The key difference in funding between the vo-techs and the districts and charters is the Delaware General Assembly sets their budget in line-by-line items in their annual budget. As well, their boards are appointed by the Governor of Delaware. Their salaries can be higher than the districts around them in certain areas. And what is up with Sussex Tech’s former Superintendent still making the big bucks? Isn’t he former? Oh yeah, he’s been on paid leave since last June because of inappropriate land deals down there according to the Cape Gazette. Do these two schools really need this many administrators?
