After a 30-year career as an engineer, I'm now in my second year of teaching math at a middle school. I have seen that most teachers are dedicated and work hard for a fraction of private-sector pay.

Translation: "I failed as an engineer, and now I am going to give NEA Union Speeches about underpaid teachers so that I can fail as a teacher, too."

Those who run our education system overlook the essential factor in the education equation: the students and their parents.

OK, there's a good point. He gets a "C".

Of course, the term 'private-sector teachers' must refer to private schools. Do Public teachers actually make a fraction of the pay that private school teachers earn?

You have no basis at all to call this man a failure in his first career. (If anything, the evidence says the opposite.) What a ridiculous comment. Do you frequently make posts like that?
