The Dallas Times Herald re ported Sunday that teachers in the Texas Department of Corrections system, known as the Windham School System, will earn an average of .$29,000. Principals will average $45,000. About one-third (if the prison school’s $24.55 million budget is spent on administration, a higher percentage than in most school sys tems, the Times Herald reported. The salaries were set under a 1978 agreement between James Es telle, former prison director, and Raymon Bynum, former commis sioner of the Texas Education Agency. Some state legislators, angered by the budget provisions, have called for an investigation of the agreement. “There are no controls of any kind,” said Harry Whittington of Austin, who said he will ask the board to hire an independent audi tor to examine the situation.

Lane Murray, Windham system superintendent, said she needs the high pay scale to attract and retain teachers. “If our teachers are getting paid on a par with the top districts in the state, I think that’s fair,” she said. “They are working with students who have dropped out of public schools, the abject failures and they’ve got them under the worst possible circumstances.” The 1978 plan by Bynum and Es telle tied Windham salaries to those in Brazosport, which was the high est-paying school system in which a prison unit was located. ui open following tit ^ , and that he wouldsu d he plans to summit \ Roth would remain day’s services inside.
