Agreed. Their starting pay should absolutely be increased but for the hours worked after 10 years they are compensated extremely well.

You wouldn’t take that job with pension and 85 thousand dollars for 181 work days a year? Teaching isn’t for everyone but that is an excellent salary.

not in ten thousand years. you can make multiples of that in the real world without dealing with children and parents.

This country spends more per student than any country in the world on K-12 education and CT is at or near the top of the states, meaning this state spends more per child than anyplace on earth and yet one half of children graduating need remedial education after they graduate and employers can’t find enough skilled labor in the state. Money clearly isn’t the issue. As for Dalio, how much did taxpayers give his company to not flee the state?
