Great Hearts Reveals Top Salaries | Phoenix News

from Phoenix News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Great Hearts Academies is leading the charge for transparency by publicly revealing top administrator salaries, including CEO Jay Heiler’s $456K and state superintendent Brandon Crowe’s $231K, sparking debate over accountability in charter schools funded by taxpayer dollars. While some districts already share financial data, many charters hide it — prompting lawmakers to push for mandatory salary disclosures. Heiler argues his pay is competitive for attracting top talent and calls for equal transparency rules across all public schools. The move aims to ensure public funds are used wisely to boost student outcomes. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
