He happened to mention a website which lists all the Duluth Teacher&#8217;s salaries (<a href=\"http:\/\/dflduluthexposed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/ISD709-SALARIES-BEFORE-BENEFITS.pdf\">for the year 2009<\/a>)  BTW this is all public data and has been for decades. Anyone wondering why we have 40 kids per class might not be surprised by the typical level of pay. <\/p>\n<p>Anyone expecting an operational levy to pass next year ought to take a good look at the list. The staff has all gotten roughly 2% a year in addition for both of the past two years since this list was compiled. On a $61,000 salary that&#8217;s better than $2,500 in new money and a big leap for the purpose of calculating a teacher&#8217;s retirement income.<\/p>\n<p>Hard to believe Frank Wanner has anything to complain about. His salary is for a part time position &#8211; 3\/5ths maybe. The Union pays him a second salary.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230;in the Duluth Schools.
