The biggest lie we have told society is that we underpay teachers.

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.
