Now add a pension at 50 percent and great medical benefits.
No one is forced into teaching so if one feels underpaid then move on.
Don't know of any other jobs with tenure; do you?
Same teacher in Marion County makes $48,000, plus $1500 for golf coach. Pension, maybe 40%. Medical benefits not even average....No one is forced into teaching You got that one right. Oh by the way..... if you think math hasn't changed, you have absolutely no idea about Common Core. But, summers off. Right Doug?
