State Controller Betty T. Yee has updated her Government Compensation in California Web site to include 2017 self-reported data for K-12 education employers, including public school districts, charter schools, and county offices of education – a total of nearly 413,000 positions and almost $16.28 billion in wages.
While cities, counties, and special districts are required to report salary and benefits data to the State Controller, K-12 education employers are voluntary reporters.
The State Controller’s Office requested data from 1,931 K-12 education employers and 527 filed reports. Of those reports, 440 were complete.
In Lake County, these districts reported the following information.
– Konocti Unified: 658 employees; total wages, $21,396,540; total retirement and health contributions, $8,508,091.
– Lake County Office of Education: 315 employees; total wages, $6,228,593; total retirement and health contributions, $1,750,746.
– Upper Lake Unified: 184 employees; total wages, $5,245,487; total retirement and health contributions, $2,021,979
– Lucerne Elementary: 78 employees; total wages, $1,612,192; total retirement and health contributions, $626,572.
Local districts and schools not reporting were:
– California Connections Academy @ North Bay;
– Kelseyville Unified;
– Lake County International Charter School;
– Lakeport Unified;
– Middletown Unified.
More than three-quarters of K-12 education employers did not file the requested reports or they provided incomplete information.
As the chief fiscal officer of California, Controller Yee is responsible for accountability and disbursement of the state’s financial resources. The Controller also safeguards many types of property until claimed by the rightful owners, and has independent auditing authority over government agencies that spend state funds.
