Edu-gossip surrounding Michelle Rhee is rampant nowadays. The newest of the big headlines: She might be heading to New Jersey. According to (unconfirmed) reports, Rhee is being considered as a potential candidate for the New Jersey commissioner and the Newark schools superintendent positions.
Nevermind about Rhee for a minute. The bigger take-away from the aforementioned USA Today article is in this one line:
The Newark job pays $280,000 a year and the statewide commissioner position about half that.
