Dues were $7 million, salaries for 38 employees was $5 million – an average of $130K each. From the NEA, we know what NEA affiliated NH teachers earn on average:
- Beginning Teacher Salary: $36,845
- Average Teacher Salary: $49,872
We ALL know that the union bosses are making WELL north of $130k (couldn’t find it in a quick search) from individual dues paying members (about $325/year). I did find this about the late State Senator who was the NEA President:
As NEA president, McGilvray will continue to earn a salary; he was paid $161,875 in 2014.
That about 500 teachers that are needed to pay just his salary; benefits are more. Gosh, and I thought the overwhelming message in schools nowadays is “sharing is caring”; how come the union bosses are being so greedy with their membership dues?
