Content Data

This page contains data entry 87070 from the Axioma AXP content repository. The structured data below represents the complete record for this entry.

Teachers (in civilized states) get very, very good benefits. My corporate health benefits are expensive and bad. The cost of health care and pension benefits in New Jersey public schools are nearly $40,000 a year.

And this article cites starting salary. Even in New Jersey, starting salaries over 52K per year are sparse. However, they are in a union. With a salary guide. What’s a Salary Guide? Well, teachers don’t get a 3% raise. They move up a step on the guide. Is the next step worth 3%? Nobody knows. Usually, the teacher negotiating team overloads the step they hit next year. So you get a 3% raise in your 6th year, and a 12% raise your 7th year.

Then, you reach “top of guide” after 15, maybe 17 years. So **everyone** who has 15 or more years makes the top salary. Which is about 90K if you have a bachelors degree, more with a masters.

And here’s the kicker. The negotiating teams **hate** to raise starting salary. Why? Because no current employee gets that starting salary. No one to be grateful for the fight.
