Also, have heard men get paid more then women some places and sometimes science and math teachers do better, but don't know if that is true.

Teachers in public school should be paid well. I always thought Private school charging so much tuition should pay teachers well. Now, I realized if the teachers aren't any better, why bother to send kids to private school for such high tuition??!!

Why are you reviving a 14 year old thread?

Public school teachers, on average, make more but their workload is higher and they get one month less off.

My workload was higher at private. I also had a 90-minute longer base workday and absolutely none of that “academic freedom” that the Private Uber Alles crowd loves to champion.

Poverty wages for DMV area. Must be married to someone who makes money or come from money. Normal people doing it’s broke. Admin also wants perfection and works you hard to make sure the elite are pleased. Horrible job.

Pay more for less qualified teachers makes zero sense.

Thinking an education degree makes a teacher more qualified to teach is like wanting classrooms to teach to the test for kids. Lowers ed standards.
