If there was an award for the largest concentration of MAGA Trumper cult members in Wisconsin, Clark County would be in the top 3, perhaps #1. Not surprisingly, the consequences for teachers and public education in general are dire in places like Clark County.  There are worse places to teach in Wisconsin, but not many. Clark County school districts have some of the lowest average teacher salaries of any county in Wisconsin, with teachers in most Clark County districts earning salaries that are below the poverty line.

We rated EVERY school district in Clark County as a DEAD END job due to the extremely low average teacher salaries offered and the minimal salary increases, (far below the inflation rate) for teachers since Act 10. Far better employment options exist than accepting employment in any Clark County school district.

The average teacher salary for the Colby school district increased by 21% since July 2011, the largest increase in Clark County, though still below the inflation rate.

The Superintendent received a nearly equal pay raise of 24%.

This district is located in an Ultra MAGA Trump voting county where all residents are expected to be 100% supportive of everything President Trump does. Dissent is not tolerated in ultra-MAGA Wisconsin counties.
