Here's How Much Manville Superintendents, Principals Earn
1 of the Manville school leaders earns more than $150,000. See where they rank.
MANVILLE, NJ — Some of the highest paid superintendents and principals in New Jersey are in Somerset County, see where Manville ranks.
The Department of Education recently released its annual list of New Jersey superintendents and principals and their salaries before the start of the 2018-19 school year. And the list of educators making $150,000 or more — a list that barely had any educators on it two decades ago — has grown in recent years.
It's also a small fraction of the more than 100,000 people who are teachers and administrators in public and charter schools in this state. But the highest earners also come from all different schools — not just the so-called "wealthy" districts that routinely rank highly on national and state lists for best schools.
