Patch put together an eye-opening list of NJ's highest-paid teachers and administrators.

A decade ago, very few teachers made six figures, but now nearly 5,000 are being paid a salary of $100,00 or more.

I feel a bit weird posting the names along with their salaries, but if you're interested you can follow the link. Here are the schools along with the pay, names redacted.

  • Joseph C Shaner Memorial Elementary School -  $168,585
  • Northern Valley Regional High School - $163,213
  • Garfield Early Childhood Learning Center - $150,967
  • Passaic Gifted and Talented Academy School No 20 - $148,370
  • E.H Slaybaugh Elementary School - $145,990
  • Ross Street Elementary School - $143,513
  • Hopewell Valley Central High School - $142.919
  • Menlo Park Terrace Elementary School - $142,029
  • Passaic Gifted and Talented Academy School No 20 - $141,707
  • River Dell Regional High School - $141,265

Most of these numbers seem to be for school administrators, not regular teachers. In 2016-2017, the average salary for teachers, librarians, guidance counselors and other non-administrative staff totaled $70,637.
