Can one/two staff member/s fulfill these needs?

No. You're going to get shit for that range. You need to bump that up to at least 6 figures to find someone worth a shit, at the least $80k starting. Thats an embarrassing offer by people that have no idea what they are doing.

Oh thats right, we're in Texas where people will accept that amount of pay.

School districts/education sector has paid crappy for IT for a long time. Can tell based on that range its pretty strict structure and probably no raises and just cost of living increases.

LOL, I got an email from a female recruiter who read my resume on a site I had it posted, and wanted to talk to me about an IT position I would be a good fit for, and the pay could be up to $25 an hour!

Yeah, but the DCS environment is not terrible and is Leatha still running the show? We did consulting for her and it seemed like she looked after her folks.

Yes, she is still CIO/CTO.

I work 226 Days a year, then subtract Vacation, Personal Days, and get a day off to go to the State Fair.

That's cute, I work 208 and then get my PTO so what's your point?

[Mach1]

I'm at 222 days, thats with pto taken into account.

Seems like you are making this a pissing match, which we know a school district isn't going to win.

Less of a pissing match and more along the lines of pointing out that your reasoning is flawed. You don't have to take shit pay in order to work fewer days each year. Hell I didn't even factor in my Holidays I get off. Schools pay shit for the work that people do for them.

What is your title/pay?

I'm not putting my pay out there for everyone, but I will tell you that I am a GIS Analyst.

I've worked for some school districts and yes the pay is embarrassingly low for what they want you to do.
