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 Greenwood school district increased by only 12.8% to  $50,445  since July 2011. This increase is well below the inflation rate. The average teacher pay increase during the last year was just over $450! (Damn teachers getting rich up there in Clark County!!!) 

Superintendent pay was flat at $126,000. 

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.

Estimated Average Teacher Income Loss Since 2011 From Act 10
$153,267

The Republican Dictatorship that has Ruled Wisconsin Since 2011 has underfunded public schools by over 4 Billion dollars in order to provide massive tax cuts to the wealthiest individual taxpayers and big business and manufacturers by severely reducing teacher salaries & benefits.

Planning on Returning to Teach in this District Next Year?

Have All Teachers Received CPI Pay Increases the Past 2 Years?  

2023 CPI was 8.00%  

2024 CPI was 4.12%

No???

Sick of the School Board Lavishing Big Raises on the Superintendent While Screwing Teachers?

Time to Send a Message to the School Board.....

Without a Guarantee of a BIG RAISE for signing your contract for the 2024-25 SY,

Make your School District WAIT until the week of June 12th to return your contract.

All contracts due by Saturday June 15th.

This is one of over 200 Wisconsin school districts  have SCREWED teachers (50,000+) since 2011 while giving MASSIVE pay raises to the Superintendent.  

Make your District value YOUR RETURN for next year as much as they value the Superintendent. 

Unless they offer at least a CPI raise for all teachers,

Hold off on returning your signed contract until June 12-14th.
