The New York Times looks at teacher pay, and finds that some teachers don’t have it so bad.
This is a great economic time to be a veteran public schoolteacher. Valerie Huff, a math teacher at East High here [Rochester, NY), a tough urban school, made more than $102,000 last year.
Ms. Huff receives “free” health insurance and, upon retirement, will receive between $60,000 and $70,000 a year courtesy of her state pension.
Teachers in North Carolina fare pretty well, too.
