Detroit Public Schools emergency financial manager Robert Bobb just got an $81,000 raise, boosting his pay under a one-year contract extension to $425,000. Bobb has become a rock star in Michigan for taking on waste, fraud and corruption, but whether he’s worth that paper is practically irrelevant. A raise that, by itself, amounts to more than what teachers make sends the wrong message to a district that is being asked — rightfully so — to make sacrifices and concessions. Leaders lead by example.
