[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A new teacher doesn’t do well. But a teacher who has been around a few years and gets certain certificates can do very well.

I looked up my kids teachers a couple of years back. They were fantastic teachers so I was curious to see. They made over 90k each. [/quote]

But how many years have they taught and what were those years? When I was teaching we had salary freezes constantly. I had been teaching for 10 years, but I hadn’t made it past step 5.

Also, keep in mind that is flat. There are no bonuses or cash rewards for performance. [/quote]

90K would be 108K if they worked the full year. That doesn’t seem bad at all. There are many, many professions that don’t get bonuses, so I don’t see how that is relevant here.

50K is low, but again, would be 60 if they worked the full year. That’s not an uncommon starting salary in many fields.

I’m starting to question the “low pay” argument. Now, crazy large class sizes and having to buy your own supplies are reasonable complaints.[/quote]
