Oh boy.  Some would be upset with the salary info being public but that is public information.  But a FTE?  Sounds like one system I knew that used to give teachers three or four classes instead of five then refuse tenure when they reached their three years and a day.  
During a strike, one local town printed the salary guide to embaress the teacher's union.  The next day the union printed the salary guide of the board members.  That was an eye-opener.
