The biggest lie we have told society is that we underpay teachers.
Download the Open Books app and unless you live in a state capital, the highest paid state workers are normal educators. Administrators are certainly the highest, but run of the mill teachers with 15+ years experience normally do pretty well.

Pretty much true.
“This is what they make per year!! Pitiful!!”
Ok.. let’s figure that with all major holidays off. A week off in March. 2 and a half months off in the summer. A week off at thanksgiving. And two weeks for Christmas and New Years.
And they STILL accrue vacation time to take outside of that.
So they have a quarter of the year OFF. PAID. Let’s figure that in to the equation.

That’s a mostly true statement. My wife earned $42,000 her first year teaching. She’s up to almost $63,000 starting in August. She has worked her way up though and is one position under an assistant principal. Even first year teachers now I believe make around $45,000. Not too shabby for your first year.

This is 100% true.
Especially in Missouri. We have a phenomenal teacher’s retirement system. So that pay extends all the way into their retirement.
An example, Parkway School District is a large district in suburban St. Louis. If you get a Masters degree and teach for 20 years, you’re making $83,000/yr this year.
In retirement at 30 years, assuming no increase in salary, you’d get around $7k/mo in pension benefits and be allowed to purchase your health insurance in the group until 65.
