[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t quite see how you make less than a living wage but more than a high school teacher. Is it all the hours you work? What as t constitutes a living wage to you? I am in the private sector and my salary increase was also 2% this year. [/quote] High school teachers don’t make a living wage either. Check out the calculator I cited in my original post - here are the results for DC for example (not where I live) https://livingwage.mit.edu/metros/47900 [/quote] Pretty sure DC high school teachers do make a living wage. DCPS teachers also make more than private school teachers. Private schools are known for paying less than public (fewer certification requirements, more freedom in teaching, more restricted student body). But I have friends who have done post-PhD teacher transition programs in MD and make more now than when they were in academia. OP, if you're actually interested look into those. [/quote]
