[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your industry needs to grow up and get with supply and demand DC pays teachers over 100k within 5-10 years if you are good enough [/quote] Sure, but the field has really struggled with figuring out how someone is “good enough.” How do you identify the strong teachers? Is it test scores? How do you address the many variables that affect those? Is it parent reviews? Student feedback? Admin observations? It’s remarkably difficult to quantify “strong teachers.” A lot of teaching is an art. That’s why merely having a certain degree isn’t enough. Can you effectively relay your content knowledge to a child? Also… DC is also facing shortages. Paying teachers more isn’t enough. [/quote]
