Milwaukee Public School teachers make $101,091 in total compensation

Why are these teachers protesting?

Via PolitiFact:

Let’s return to the MacIver Institute claim.

The conservative think tank said the average annual compensation for a Milwaukee Public Schools teacher would exceed $100,000 in 2011. As of July 1, 2011, according to the school district, that figure will be $101,091.

MacIver’s claim is True.
