Here are links to some other relevant blogs and some notes. Sorry for the large number, but it has been a month...
First note: There is some discussion of Supt health and dental benefit costs in these text strings. I did get an answer and 281 Exposed was correct. RAS pays ~$29,000/yr for Supt family coverage. (and yes Stan gets it for ~5 more years) The good/bad side is that this is not typical of the other RAS employees. RAS pays in the more normal range of $8k to $12k for these employees. The positive is that since RAS is self insured, the premiums are paid into a trust. If the trust has extra money left in it at year end, this can be used to reduce the next year's premiums. (ie not disappearing into an outside company's profits)
G2A Misc RAS Items
A reader clarified that the district will likely use experienced and highly effective RAS teachers as the ARRA funded coaches. (possibly as TOSA's) And typical retirements will likely allow re-absorption of the teachers in 2 years when the funding is removed. They also noted that the Supt's raise will be between 1 and 2% per year, not the full 2% I reported.

These are definitely worth a read, since the head count seems to be somewhat confusing and not too transparent. DJ does a good job of trying to explain it.
Please feel free to comment on any or all...
