[quote=Anonymous]I taught for three years. Couldn't hack it. Now I have a desk job and make over $100K. Now that charter schools are everywhere, teachers are seeing reduced benefits - no more pensions, no more substitutes - plus longer hours. Teachers need to be paid more and respected more, especially excellent teachers. Teacher programs should be competitive and there should be apprenticeship programs set up in which excellent teachers team teach with new graduates. If you sign up to teach for 10 years, perhaps your loans should be forgiven and you receive a substantial bonus ($50K?). I could go on. [/quote]
