Title: Parchment School District - $100k+ Employee Compensation
Post by: Shadowninja on Sep 30, 2026, 03:12 PM
Dearest reader,

Next in Parchment School District's ledger: 2025 employee compensation. 🪶
�
According to the district's compensation reporting, 5 employees had Medicare wages of $100,000 or more in 2025.

Together, those five employees received:

💰 $582,351 in Medicare wages

💰 $856,941 in total compensation
�
For the superintendent:

Medicare wages: $141,252

Total compensation: $225,808
�
A reminder about these numbers: total compensation is not the same thing as take-home pay. It can include wages along with employer-paid benefits and other compensation reported by the district.

Lady B includes both because looking at salary alone does not always show taxpayers the full cost of compensation.

No rankings. No declaration that someone is paid too much or too little.

Just the numbers, placed in the ledger for readers to see.

With receipts and respect,
