I disagree. Most teachers aren't that bright. A lot are quite dull. Some are scarily woke and peddle misinformation in the name of truth and justice. A few are excellent. This is what parents found out during the pandemic and remote learning.
On the whole I imagine the current pay scale to be fairly fair for teachers.
There wouldn’t be massive teacher shortages if that were the case.

Here’s how you get the excellent and bright teachers to quit.
My issue isn’t with pay. It’s with disrespect. The parent above just insulted an “excellent” teacher. I’ll be leaving because of nonsense like this, not because of low pay.
You’ll be left with “quite dull” teachers because those of us who are very bright and employable won’t take the abuse any longer.

The lawyers and doctors don't seem to make quite as much here as in those places and other jobs seem to pay far lower here based on these threads.
It’s the bolded.

Where do you work? I can’t think of a county that pays that much at year 15. My county doesn’t even reach 125K at the very top of the pay scale.
DCPS…I’m year 15 but step 21 or something. They skip you steps if you are rated highly effective consecutive years and teach in a high poverty school.
