Teachers at this Chicago high school make an average of $76,000/year. 40% of students don't graduate and the ones who do need remedial education. Here is the official 2014 prom slogan. Pretty much tells the very sad story.

Linkage? Specifically on the salaries. The graduation numbers sound about right for inner-city; education starts and ends with the family not the teacher (regardless of what the teachers say).

The list of FAIL on this is long, and I'm not convinced the students belong on it at all.

That shit is so complicated and predicated on previous contracts and addendums that both sides will spin it as a fail or win depending on who they are talking to.
However the $75k p/yr average sounds a little inflated but not too bad considering it's a major metropolis.

Well with unions and the government developing those charts, I'm thinking I would need a quantum slide ruler and a kilo of peyote to begin to understand...

The teachers are dealing with "Urban Youths", which is the polite PC newspaper way of saying nigglets. It doesn't matter how much money you throw at schools filled with Urban Youths; most of them are untrainable because of IQs in the 70-90 range.

Sorry, I forgot the link to the story. I got the salary figure from the story. It is supposed to be the average for teachers in City of Chicago public schools.

Meanwhile, at the State level, it's much worse.
