During the Murphy years it was the same thing with leaving high paying administrative positions intact. To clarify, the secretary position assigned to Ellen Fogelberg, which was eliminated, was a low-paying union position with a total compensation package of only $35K an amount that made no meaningful impact on closing the budget shortfall. While he retained administrators and executive assistants, whose combined compensation exceeded nearly $2 million. This pattern continues with the current administration as well. Teachers, paraprofessionals, and lower-paid support staff are being cut, while administrators with high six-figure salaries remain untouched. This practice is inequitable and must be addressed. So yes, it's time to finally eliminate these administrators and their HIGH 6 figure salaries.
The administration when Hardy Murphy was leading wasn’t nearly as bloated as it is now…not even close. Dr Horton made up so many positions it’s ridiculous (Dean of this, Dean of that, Superintendent of curriculum, Superintendent of operations, Superintendent of Human Resources) and then all of those positions had assistants. Clearly Dr Horton thought he won the lottery when he rolled into Evanston.

And bet that most all of those made-up positions were for friends of Horton (it’s called the Buddy System)…..
Agreed, it was not extreme like Horton, but it still reflected a level of elitism and disregard for teachers and staff doing the heaving lifting.
