I agree with you, but The teacher pay depends on the state you live and your experience. I know this will blow your mind, but blue state tend to pay their teachers better than red states. Shocking, right?
The average teacher pay in California is 95k. If you live in a small town in California, you’re probably fairly well off. But if you live in la, you’re probably broke.
he teacher salary in Florida is about 53k. Nobody is doing great on 53 k.

AS long as they’re held accountable for actually teaching at that payrate, I’m all for it. I had too many teachers that did the bare minimum to make sure we could pass the standardized test and that was it. I hated science in high school because of it and can’t get enough of it now that I can learn it from people that give a shit.

It’s possible these two attitudes are related somehow.
