Public Employees Making That Money
You may not have realized how significant high school sports coached are until you came across this map. To be fair, if you didn’t play sports in high school, then they probably didn’t have much of an effect on your life. But for student-athletes, coaches are cheerleaders, role models, and mentors.

Sports teams are very important for some student-athletes who rely on their talent for a basketball or football college scholarship. Therefore, talented and experienced sports coaches are high in demand. In most of America, basketball coaches and football coaches are the highest-paid public employees along with med schools deans and college presidents.
