[quote=Anonymous]When I was a kid, the school paid for everything (supplies, copier paper, tissues) and paid the teachers a good salary. This was in the NYC area where budgets were voted on by town, and ours was very high. In this area, if you are a single person, the salary isn’t enough to live close by in many cases, and the school provides nothing. You have so many standards to teach to that you have so much admin to take care of. Private schools seem ritzy, but they usually pay teachers less than public schools. I don’t want my kid’s teachers to be paying out of pocket for anything when I make at least 2-3 times what they do. I send Amazon or Target cards so they can use them for whatever they want - classroom supplies, groceries, or something for themselves.[/quote]
