Around here, no one supervising or working the table makes anywhere close to what officials make. It's something like $30-40 for the whole night. Not exactly living high on the hog.



Eight teachers all making more than the officials? Really?



You know guys, if it's that bad, get out of officiating and get into teaching so you can take advantage of all these perks. No one forces you to officiate.

You're missing the point which is schools are free with paying extras to hang around and yet have no funds for a third official.
