Then you have no idea what a person with a good degree can make. As I said above I have a BS in math, required for HS math teachers, and was making just over 100k/year until I got sick with 10 weeks of vacation a year. And my vacation was when I wanted not designated by someone else.
And you think that's anywhere near the average for someone with a 4 year degree?
For someone with a math degree? It significantly below avergae. I stayed with a company I liked in the face of headhunters with much better offers.

Mandated working hours well in excess of 8 hours, required taking of work home and dealing with 30+ kids who know the teacher can do little to nothing to maintain order in the classroom.
30? Check your facts. In Wisconsin, the average class size is 13-16 students per teacher.

You might want to look around, there is a thread active on this forum full of bashing of teachers.
One thread, ok.
