[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some parents working two jobs are your kids’ teachers. [/quote] I don’t stay after school because I work in another school’s after school program. It’s almost impossible to get a teaching spot at my school’s after school program because the teachers all need the money. [/quote] I think teachers should be paid more and support all initiatives for this. But MCPS teacher starting salary is 60k. There are lots of jobs in the DC area with similar or less. There is also plenty of outside tutoring opportunities available. How are teachers struggling in this area? Asking seriously with no judgements.[/quote] On a two income family they should be fine but the problem is if they have kids child care can be more than their take home. I was in a similar position and I ended up quitting as child care was more than my take home and it wasn't a 9-5 steady job so a regular day care wouldn't work.[/quote]
