Okay, what’s the correlation? What’s the equivalent public sector job? Just wondering.
Also: The article breaks down the cost per pupil. How much of that money is for administration costs? If teachers make so much money what is the school principal making? Toll booth operators in NJ are making $100,000. And school janitors in NYC are making more than teachers. Why single out teachers? Again, just wondering.
And they’re doing such a “great” job too. In Los Angeles, the drop-out rate for hispanic high scrool students is 50 percent.
Yeah, but it’s for the children that they make that much! They work so much harder than the rest of us for 9 months out of the year to equal our 12 month totals don’t you know?
I don't know of many public school teachers making $116k annually, which is $56/hr full time.
Figured against 8 months, that equates to about $78k, still very high for a nationwide average.
Salary.com shows mid career teachers at about $48k annual locally.
Privatize education. Starve the beast.
“Science is not what you observe, or what the outdated so-called “scientific method” or what the backwards patriotic Americans tell you it is.
Science is what the government says it is.
Now, open the late Chairman Mao's little red book to page twelve........”
Obviously, a job that requires education and training is going to pay more than average.
