There is a lot of offset with school sports. Basketball in my area pays for it's self, not so much with Baseball and Soccer but the Boosters help and the kids do a lot of fund raising. Still, if there was a place to cut, extra curricular activities (that's not just sports) should be at the top of the list (do they really need new uniforms every year?).
As far a teacher pay goes. I'm married to a teacher and she works a lot. Not only is she correcting papers & planning almost every night she goes in on Sunday afternoon to get ready for the next week. This is not at all uncommon either, yes there are teachers that just get by but you are going to find those folks everywhere in any profession.
Oh and folks that rail on the profession because they get summer vacation, guess what, THEY DON'T GET PAID FOR IT. A teaching year in Maine is around 180 days, that's what they get paid for. My wife works a part time summer job as well. These figures of $85,000 are pretty crazy, around here that's upper admin pay, teachers with a lot of time might sniff half that.
One other thing, there's so many screwed up kids now you couldn't get me to step into a classroom period. I work in a school district (not with kids directly), I see it all the time, those folks earn they're pay and then some.

I soon found that it would be very useful to have a tractor around the place for things such as grading our long drive and brush-hogging the fields. I was also embarking on planting 1000 eucalyptus trees, and hence I would need a ripper, small disk plow, sprayer etc. to get these things accompli
