I do t think any of them have ever had a second job. They seem to be doing great.

They don’t take the summers off. They are effectively unemployed because their next contract starts in August.

I’m sincerely glad they are doing well. Teachers should be able to have comfortable lives, so it’s great to hear of the ones who are. When all teachers can live in “small houses in nice areas” and have enough money to send kids to private schools, then we are getting somewhere. Right now, that doesn’t seem to be the norm.

Um, I don’t want my kids teachers sending their kids to private schools. They can, of course, but it certainly sends the wrong message.

I worked in a certain DMV school years ago. I’d guess that approximately 2/3rds of the teachers went broke sending their own kids to private schools. When you see behind the curtain, sometimes you don’t like what you see.

Teachers can make the same decisions for their children as anybody else. I don’t like it when I hear local politicians send their kids to private schools when they have so much control over public school budgets, but I don’t fault them for their choices.

They aren't working during the summer, I don't care what you call it, and they seem to be pretty darn e static about it. So we are paying them enough.

First grade teacher making $100k. And summers OFF! Life is good.



My sister is a first grade teacher with a masters and 23 years in. She’s not making $100K.

The above is a troll post. Teachers do not make this much unless they've been doing it for 35 years or more. Also, teachers do not have "off" in the summer. They are furloughed and have no job during that time.

Not the above poster, look at licensed teacher salary.. Not a troll. This area pays their teachers very well.

It’s not terrible but it’s important to remember that steps do not equal years of service in most districts so it takes quite awhile to get to the higher end.

Go be a teacher if it’s so great.

Super common. Several families in my neighborhood use teachers and extended day staff as babysitters or tutors. My son’s preschool teacher works at Target. My other child’s kindergarten teacher also teaches Pilates.

When my mom was a teacher and I was in elementary school she would waitress on the weekend.

Established teachers who have completed their masters and paid off school loans may be ok, but a lot of younger teachers DO work extra jobs because they have student loans to pay or want to save money for a house or a wedding.

When I was a young teacher in DC I tutored, babysat and housesat to make enough money to live on. It’s not uncommon at all.
