I remember during the 1990’s Americans were talking about how little money teachers made considering the daunting task they had to do. Now it seems they-are a convenient foil for the failure of administration.
Would across-the-board pay increases get us better teachers?
Not necessarily, but it wouldn’t hurt to make that profession more economically feasible, or just give them the respect they deserve.
Just pointing out how far the perception of teachers has fallen over the last 25 years. Administration is failing in their duty to parents and students much more than teachers whilst teachers take the brunt of the blame.
