Well if you're gonna take it personal? You're gonna take it personal. But do not think this is an isolated incident, read the paper some time and you'll see my problems are mild compared to some students/families. On a personal level after 13 years of hell in public schools I can count 2 teachers out of over 50 worth their pay.

Further according to NCES Estimated average salary of teachers in public elementary and secondary schools, by state, 2012-2013 "The national average starting teacher salary is $36,141, while the average teacher salary in America (non-starting) is $56,383"

That's more than I make a year and way more than they deserve.

Telling somebody they don't deserve enough money to feed their family is kinda personal? Head scratcher that, isn't it?

Alright, so let's assume you're right (you're not) and imagine that the school system is full of dreadful teachers who don't give a fuck. You think that paying them less would... improve the standards???

Of all the unjust money being made around the world, your hill to die on is the 30k teachers make?
