Teaching in this district is the definition of a Dead End Job. 

The average teacher salary in this district was just under $45,000 in 2010-11.  Fourteen years later, this district has increased teacher salaries so little that the average teacher salary STILL hasn't cracked the $50,000 mark. Likely there has been a massive teacher turnover rate for many years in this district.

While teachers get screwed in this district every year, there was enough money to give the Superintendent a $5000 raise last year, raising the Superintendent pay to $131,392. 

This district is located about 25 miles from the Minnesota border. While the Republican Dictatorship that rules Wisconsin continues to defund public schools,  Minnesota just sent a 2 BILLION dollar funding increase to keep it's public schools #1 in America. Wisconsin is declining while Minnesota is the economic engine of the Midwest.

This school district is located in an Ultra-MAGA Trump voting county where residents support everything that President Trump does. Dissent is not tolerated in these Ultra MAGA Wisconsin counties. We suggest teachers who are not 100% supporters of President Trump flee Republican voting school districts like this one for the much higher pay and benefits offered in Minnesota districts.
