Last month I wrote about the revolving door between “education non-profit” WakeEd Partnership and Wake County Schools.

In that article, I noted that I had requested the job description and salary for Ms. Crain’s position at Wake County Schools.   I  am here to report that I have received that information.

Ms. Crain will be making $85,115 as Director of “Strategy and Policy”.  For contrast, the average classroom teacher in Wake County currently makes just under $50,000.

The position is not a new one, I am told. It was previously held by Jaime Biswas.

The positions main purpose is to support the pricey WCPSS “strategic plan“.
