$58,950 for nine months work. Nice work if you can get it.
Don’t forget to add pension and terrific healthcare benefits bringing total comp closer to $100k.
That’s average. OK’s is $46k average. This isn’t about overpaid or underpaid, OK is losing teachers to other states like Texas that pays $10k minimum more. Just like our national government, OK legislators are lining their pockets and their special interest groups.
Sure are a lot of “conservatives” on here trashing OK teachers and their efforts to make more money. Especially freepers with NO understanding of what today’s teachers put up with. Teachers now have classrooms of 35-40 students, including special needs. And they work more than 6 hours a day.
Looks like capitalism and democracy at work to me. The governor is free to fire them all. And they are free to protest the mismanagement of OK budget. Money that could be going to our schools. FYI, OK doesn’t have lefty teachers pushing the libtard agenda. Most are pretty conservative and voted for Trump.
