How about source that just provides the *average* instead of selectively choosing the highest numbers to make an argument?

What is the (unqualified) average teacher salary in the state of CA?

I have no doubt it’s way south of $86K.[/quote]

As of last year, $67,932.

In San Diego Unified, the average salary is $64,466, for a teacher with an average of 14.3 years of experience.

Still too much. They work 3/4’s of the year. So that equates to $86K….exactly what the previous poster suggested.

$64,466/.75 = $85,954

Looks like you proved his point.
