You can do something!
April 20, The latest from the Mass Dept of Education puts B-R at #1 again for salaries

B-R Superintendent had quotes in the Taunton Gazette refuting my statements that B-R had the highest average salaries in the state at $61,811 per year for the 2002 school year.  His claim, backed up by - what, someone tell me - that B-R is actually ranked 26th is silly given the official reports from the State.  The Department of Education just released (4/9/2004) its preliminary numbers (four school districts not yet reporting) for the 2003 school year. 

B-R #1 for a second year in a row !!!

With an average teacher salary of
$65,036 per year, congratulations must be in order.  A jump of $3225/year in average salary, all the while claiming more money is needed --
for tbe children.

So that no one can claim that I am inventing numbers, please goto the State's site to download the data.
