> Why do school board super-intendants and administration make more money than teachers themselves?

A couple reasons:

1. Because usually, superintendents and the administration are responsible and accountable for a lot more moving parts than teachers are. Aside from the many kids each teacher teachers, which leads us to point #2.

2. There is a lot more supply of teachers than demand. If a teacher doesn't like their objectively meager pay, they can quit. There are 10 applicants lined up waiting to take their position.

> I believe they shouldn't.

This is generally handled at your city level. Organize your like-minded constituents to lobby the board?
