What's the ideal size for high school?

City budget: Testing office jobs pay out big

Eduwonkette's been taking a close look at the city's proposed budget for fiscal year 2009 (pdf)— and she reports today that the $8,287,282 slated for the Division of Assessment and Accountability includes $7,789,623 for 18 staff positions, or $432,757 per position. Eduwonkette uses these figures to point to the DOE's "selective attention to budgeting issues." But I'd prefer to look on the bright side — the money earmarked for DAA isn't going up next year. Not getting a raise is like a cut, right?
