American Public School Teachers earn nearly 1000 dollars a week. Yet they rank in the low 30s compared to teachers in other industrialized nations.
American public school teachers are the most highly paid public servant teachers in any of the Industrialized world. They average around $1000 a week. American public school teachers rank in the low 30 in terms of teacher rating and success with students compared to other industrialized nations. Many nations teachers teach 100 Days or more than American teachers. McGraw Hill runs the public schools. In America teachers present curriculums they typicallydo not create. The fade rate for students in America can easily be 70% after 10 years. America is a business society. More people are employees in the private schools in America than in the public schools.
Spencerian "survival of the financially fitest" has become the way we Americans value things. That's why philosophy professors with doctorates in philosophy are the lowest paid college professors and coaches are paid the most, oftentimes more than college presidents.
I read somewhere that over 60% of college teachers are now adjunct without benefits and being paid under contracts by the course. Some have to live in their cars because their incomes can be less than $15,000 a year and they may have to move every year or so because their contract runs out at one school and they have to find one at another.
When we don't value education, we hand it over to business.
