[QUOTE="Skeptic, post: 375507, member: 2175"] My second son is a professor at an excellent public college and doesn't make six figures. Those numbers are reserved for the administrators who, well, administrate something. You must live in a fabulously wealthy school district, because in NC's wealthiest districts the average is about $48,000 with probably 10 years -- 10 years -- experience, and the mean is closer to $42,000. And our wonderful anti-public education legislature wants to cut it. In high tax Connecticut where my oldest lives the median is about $63,000. But more probably, you are just wrong. Check it out again, or maybe tell us what state and district we are talking about ... I know some NC teachers who will want to move there. The ones who did not flee to Texas when Houston started poaching them with $10,000 increases after the first round of budget cuts. And not to suck up to somebody else on the board, but whatever they are paid, it ain't enough. Seriously. We historically devalue teachers at every level, and then whine about education. (And if you live in Georgia, a word of advice: move.) [/QUOTE]
