By using student labor:
This year, Texas newspapers and schools have joined the Freedom of Information Foundation of Texas in encouraging open-records research for students. The Chronicle has asked students at 32 area school districts to research salaries and contract information of their superintendents. All the districts replied within the specified time frame, and their results will be published in the Chronicle’s City and State section this Wednesday.
Were the students compensated? If so, was it more than minimum wage? What about health benefits? Paid holidays? Generous retirement benefits? Union representation?
