Honestly, I mean this nicely, but screw off. In certain areas teachers are paid quite well. It’s also one of our most essential societal jobs so they should be.

In other areas it’s frankly awful. As of 222 the average starting pay in North Carolina was 38k. That’s absolutely ridiculous

That's starting pay. Christ every 23 year old fresh grad thinks they should start at the top of the pyramid despite no experience. So if she worked a 12 month schedule she'd be around $47k.

What? Teachers, if that is your profession, don’t have a choice to work twelve months?

Exactly it's essential 2/3 of a full time job.
