PG pays decent but Montgomery pays better.

DC pays best, but you earn every penny of it with the administrative dysfunction and behaviors

Building administrator is important. You have to feel supported and part of a team that's working with you if you're going to stay. You have to feel like you can make a difference for the kids. If you're just brow-beaten it's not worth it. Good building administrators--and PG does have them around-- make a huge difference.
