HS teacher-$70K for 9 months of work

[teaboy]

Americans are all overpaid, not just teachers. Try maintaining the same living standard in any other country on the equivalent wages and you’ll quickly see how you have it good here in the US.

The point is NOT if teachers / firemen / police etc deserve their pay and pensions etc. The real question is can we afford them? I don’t have a Rolls Royce, not because one is not worth the money, but because I cannot afford one and probably would not buy one if I could.

Something has to give …

technically, teachers don’t have an 8-5 job. After school and at home, more than often they are preparing for tomorrow’s teaching day and/or grading papers, reading projects,etc.

I don’t have kids but have worked as a tutor on a indian reservation (read combat duty) and while I agree with what you say SD about pay I don’t think to say that teachers have the same training as us engineers. That simply isn’t true or even close!

But to have to deal with kids… Man that is so much more difficult (in a different way) to deal with.

I just take objection to the training…

Still love ya though! 😛

So the 3 years of teacher training in addition to a bachelors is weak?

Also, very few teachers work 6 hours a day or 9 months a year.

Generally that only applies to very unmotivated elementary school teachers or those on a part time schedule.
