Dearest reader... your Lady has reached the compensation ledger in Kalkaska. 🪶
And compared with some ledgers we have opened lately, this one is rather... petite.
Kalkaska Public Schools' 2024 disclosure lists just three employees with compensation above $100,000.
👑 Superintendent
Salary: $137,582.61
Total compensation: $239,191.55
🏫 High School Principal
Salary: $111,818.48
Total compensation: $194,435.69
🏫 Birch Street Principal
Salary: $101,092.69
Total compensation: $182,059.56
Combined total compensation for all three: $615,686.80.
And notably, dearest readers, there is no Assistant Superintendent listed.
No scandalous gasp from the drawing room today. No dramatic raising of the quill.
Just three names above the threshold and the district's own numbers placed neatly upon the ledger.
Because sometimes the receipts raise an eyebrow.
And sometimes they simply deserve to be recorded. 🪶
With receipts & respect.
