Yup. $100/week. It's more than I want to be paid, but they give me a raise every year.
We don't have anywhere near fifteen teachers, though -- we had five teachers this year. Next year, I think we're going to have, like, seven. We really would love to have enough students to need fifteen teachers, although I don't think the building is large enough for that. Still, a lot of kids in the community go to the weekly afterschool program (not run by our shul, and kids from all different shuls go), instead of our Hebrew school.
Which is, frankly, better. We teach three hours a week; they teach three hours a day. We're real happy when kids decide to go to Kesher instead of us. And they love it -- the director of Kesher is Rafi, the guy who was my boss at the Hebrew school two years ago, and I just love him to pieces, and so do all the kids.
