HOUSTON (KTRK) — Parents are expressing shock at what Spring ISD is paying one consultant to train teachers, in a school district already shelling out big bucks for administrators.
Just listen or look around. It’s Vail, a mountain paradise. And in the heart of this picturesque Colorado village, lots of Texas tax money is being spent.
The guy in the Hawaiian shirt is Spence Rogers. Spring Independent School District pays him $4,000 a day to help teachers teach.
“Four thousand dollars a day,” Spring ISD grandparent Guillermo Barboza said. “My God, that’s a lot of money for one person.”
Here is the full article.

Ridiculous. They could spend 10% of that and get the same results.
I get paid more than $4K a day.
My daddy is rich.
4K is a lot of money compare to what?
Any course you take costs at least $500/day from at least 10 peoples.
Of course,you can find someone on Craglist to teach you bartering for food, but ti will be the same?
No news here, sorry, just starved peoples.
Who is this trainer? What is he training them to do? How to make gold?
It’s just the sad state of our education (I mean Indoctrination) system.
Here in Nevada, approximaly 52% of taxpayer money goes to Education. What do we get for it? Nevada remains last in American in education!
