Ask yourself if a person could live on $58,720 per year, then look at what we are paying these people and decide if they truly need a raise.
As published by the Toledo Blade on Tuesday, 4/29/2014: Sylvania School Board Approves New 3-Year Employment Contracts
Southview High School's athletic director Susie Felver, whose salary increased $4,757 to $90,314
So now we're paying a gym teacher $90 grand? WTF?!
Director of disability services Michalene Sujaritchan, who got a $5,483 raise to $104,113
Just what does a director of disability services do, anyway? I mean besides suck up money from the public trough.
Assistant principal at Northview High School, Kasey Vans, whose new $88,761 salary includes a $4,681 raise.
$88 grand for an assistant principal? What are they, nuts? What did Vans do to deserve a raise, anyway? Besides show up for work everyday. Here's a few more, again from The Blade.
Employees whose contracts were renewed for three years and their salaries are:
Joseph Shamy, food service director, $78,391
Julie Sanford, assistant curriculum director, $88,761
Amanda Ogren, assistant principal at McCord Junior High School, $87,881
David McMurray, Southview High School principal, $110,403

Jeremy Bauer, Stranahan Elementary School principal, $96,371
Michael Bader, Timberstone Junior High School principal, $104,113
Alan Bacho, director of facilities, $104,113
Director of facilities, over $100 grand. For what? Fire Bacho and let the assistant principals do his job. The seem to make about as much.
This is why the Sylvania BOE is demanding more money. They spend money that doesn't belong to them like there's no tomorrow.
Keep reading, because here's the best part.
Chris Myers over at SwampBubbles posted this on Tuesday, April 29th. It seems that members of the Sylvania school system are using school resources paid for by our tax dollars to promote the new levy they don't need. As Chris points out, this is in violation of Ohio law. Here's a link to the article and another to the Ohio law.
SwampBubbles: Is Sylvania schools using district resources to promote the levy? The answer is yes, the question should be to what extent?
LAW Writer® Ohio Laws and Rules: 3315.07 Instructional program for employees - supplies and equipment for local school districts.
(C)
(1) Except as otherwise provided in division (C)(2) of this section, no board of education shall use public funds to support or oppose the passage of a school levy or bond issue or to compensate any school district employee for time spent on any activity intended to influence the outcome of a school levy or bond issue election.
Chris bases his accusations on email that he, personally, received from the Sylvania school system and that he displays on SwampBubbles.
This is a brand new low, even for the Sylvania BOE. Hand out raises, demand more money from the taxpayer and use school resources to promote the tax levy. Typical politicians.

That is the problem, they've BECOME politicians, no longer teachers...
They have indeed. What we really need are teachers, particularly grade school teachers. Someone who is able to take a child who is illiterate and who hates school and turn that child into a student. A literate student who at least believes the good found in learning outweighs the bad that exists in public schools. These people used to exist, but I think that today that class of instructor is extinct.
Instead, we now have a group of parasites that abuse the system and are marking time until retirement. Meantime, they demand more money.
