One of the common arguments for proponents of large districts is that if you split, you have to double the administration. While there certainly would be a duplication of certain positions, not all positions would have to be copied to smaller districts, and certainly not at the same pay scale.
The Lehi Free Press recently published how 33 administrators at Alpine School District are compensated over $200k. This immediately begs the question just how many of these positions would have to be duplicated and at what pay scale for a smaller district. The reality is each new district would have a much smaller administration than the current district. Of course, the combination of administration for all new districts would likely be more than the current cost for one district, but not significantly.
