And the ratio of administrators to students is pretty much pure bloat and probably a much better direction to go if we're looking at figuring out how to more efficiently use our education dollars. Of course, at the risk of sounding like a broken record, they're all members of the union too. But I'm sure that's totally unrelated.
Actually, they frequently aren't. Varies wildly based on the union. Around here, the "administrators" are mostly IT folks, and they are *definitely* just extra bloat. Should outsource that **** to Bangalore. Now the janitors, they do something that actually requires a skill set.
Nexa is a member of our state teacher's union, incidentally. I believe since I know her that makes me an education policy expert.

Who said we even need janitors? Just make the kids on the school lunch programs or other aid do the classroom cleaning. Wasn't that one of the proposals some politician had?
