We rate this district as Might Be a Good Place to Work.
The average teacher salary in this district was just over $43,000 in 2010-11. Fourteen years later, this district has increased teacher salaries by 24% which was below to the inflation rate to bring the average teacher salary to $53,644.
Though the increase in average teacher salary nearly kept up to inflation, in light of the massive pay increases lavished on the Superintendent, we think that this district could be doing better to pay competitive teacher salaries.
The Superintendent received a $20,000 pay increase last year, bringing that salary up to $160,000. Since 2010-11, the Superintendent has received a lavish 56% raise that was way above the rate of inflation.
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.
Even though this district is probably one of the best places to teach in Burnett County, 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.
