cut teacher salaries=stupid idea
Teachers are already paid so little (i know as a new CA teacher)
It’s not bad for a 9-month work year.
(My wife is a teacher)
So, what do you suggest for budget cuts?
“A school superintendent in Rhode Island is trying to fix an abysmally bad school system. Her plan calls for teachers at a local high school to work 25 minutes longer per day, each lunch with students once in a while, and help with tutoring. The teachers’ union has refused to accept these apparently onerous demands.
The teachers at the high school make $70,000-$78,000, as compared to a median income in the town of $22,000. This exemplifies a nationwide trend in which public sector workers make far more than their private-sector counterparts (with better benefits). “
From a thread about 30 spots upwards of this one.
