How much are teachers in private schools paid?
Far less. My wife makes about 1200 a month teaching at a Christian School that uses a classical education style. She was making that much bi weekly as a public school teacher. To be fair, we get a tuition break for our son, but that is also offset by a McKay Scholarship. No bennies, no pension. This is truly a service-based decision, as my wife believes she is doing more good in this environment, as well as our son. So the whiners can try again, they know how much private school (read Christian or Catholic schoool for the most part) salaries are, every teacher does.
