What an odd comment to make.

I am not the PP, but a 15 year teacher makes a minimum of $108,000. If you think that's insufficient, what to you think would be appropriate?

If it takes 15 years to make 6 figures then you figure it out big brain. Another idiot comment.

Would you like to answer the question? What would be an appropriate minimum salary for a 15-year teacher?

DP

I have been in my job for 15 years and make around $180k (I have been promoted more quickly than other colleagues). I can absolutely see $108k being low for a high performer with 15 years of experience. The problem is there is no real way to reward the best performers except for them to move into non teaching jobs.

First, like the PP, you didn't answer the question. I get that many people think that $108k is "too low." Great. So what should the minimum salary be?

Also, are you suggesting that since you make $180k, teachers should as well? All jobs should be paid the same?

Divided among the approximately 14,000 teachers in MCPS, those finds amount to about $30 per teacher. Op, if I send you a check, will you quit your whining?

The median income for someone with a humanities/liberal arts degree in the DC metro area is $87k. $108k isn't bad, especially when you throw in another $5-10k for summer employment.

Where are you buying a house in MoCo with a family on that salary? Get real. Teachers don’t go into the field to get rich. Stop bringing up their salaries. It’s the idiots in charge who mess everything up. Leave the teachers out of it.

Did you miss the title of the thread?

I’m more bothered by the stupid contracts for trainings that the teachers don’t want. I’d rather they spent that time lesson planning or grading or getting useful subject matter training.

If you've actually been following what's been going on with the EV buses, they actually don't.

From both a cost and operational perspective, the EV buses have been a big bust for MCPS.

Transparency and security were his two focuses when he was hired. Both gone within months.

Taylor takes accountability for nothing and blames all lapses in security on his predecessors or his underlings. When it comes to transparency, he pretends to be transparent in performative ways, such as holding meetings while obscuring what he and the system are actually doing behind the scenes.

The federal government disagrees with that. My kid gets a Pell grant due to my low income.

Do you have 6 children?
