Fresno parents are watching their children’s education crumble, while the woman running the school system collects an eye-popping paycheck. Fresno Unified Superintendent Mao Misty Her earns a reported base pay of $386,045, receives $87,117 in benefits and “other pay” of $40,563, which comes to a staggering total of $513,725, per Transparent California. The numbers have sparked outrage because they come as Fresno Unified grapples with a massive budget crisis that has led to job cuts, staffing changes and the elimination of many popular student field trips.
