[quote=Anonymous]My wife taught in Fairfax for 6 years before leaving for Arlington. It's like a 10k-15k difference in salary at the mid-career levels and there is a shortage of qualified teachers in the area (particularly in her field -math). It's clear the county does not value retaining teachers. Who wouldn't leave a job if they could get a 10k raise for doing the same work 15 minutes away (she worked in Falls Church and now works in Western Arlington county). We also had friends who went to Prince William (which pays more and is a cheaper area to live in). They got rid of their commutes and got a raise to boot.[/quote]
